Title: Overview on Cosmic Magnetism Issues

We summarize some open questions around cosmic magnetic fields, from the theoretical and observational point of view. The use of Smoothed Particle Magneto Hydrodynamics (SPMHD) is getting nowadays more and more common to tackle these problems. From galaxy clusters to neutron stars, there are multiple applications already existing in the literature. I will quickly review some of the common methods used to evolve the MF, highlighting the successful approach of using vector potentials to describe them. Finally, I select a few applied astrophysical examples that will shed light on these issues in the near future.
