I present a short review of primordial magnetic helicity effects on Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) temperature and polarization anisotropies. These effects allow us to test for cosmological magnetic helicity; however, very accurate CMB fluctuation data are required. This scheme for magnetic helicity detection is valid only for a cosmological magnetic field with a present amplitude larger than 10 –9 –10 –10 Gauss. (© 2006 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
