| contents | It is shown that in the spacetime dominated by a cosmological constant, in the far region of a Schwarzschild-de Sitter black hole, a seed magnetic field can be generated in an ambient plasma (in a state of no magnetic field) by a general-relativistic battery, which depends on the interaction of spacetime curvature with inhomogeneous plasma thermodynamics. Thus, at large distances, dark energy becomes the only gravitational source for magnetic field generation. This allows a mechanism that make dark energy manifest through its conversion to cosmic magnetic fields. |
