Cosmic-ray propagation in the turbulent intergalactic medium

Cosmic rays (CRs) may be used to infer properties of intervening cosmic magnetic fields. Conversely, understanding the effects of magnetic fields on the propagation of high-energy CRs is crucial to elucidate their origin. In the present work we investigate the role of intracluster magnetic fields on the propagation of CRs with energies between $10^{16}$ and $10^{18.5}$ eV. We look for possible signatures of a transition in the CR propagation regime, from diffusive to ballistic. Finally, we discuss the consequences of the confinement of high-energy CRs in clusters and superclusters for the production of gamma rays and neutrinos.
