Producing Synthetic Maps of Dust Polarization using Velocity Channel Gradient Technique
arXiv:1910.02226 · doi:10.1093/mnras/staa1570
Abstract
In modern cosmology, many efforts have been put to detect primordial B-mode of cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization from the gravitational waves generated during inflation. Considering the foreground dust contamination of microwave polarization maps, it is essential to obtain a precise prediction for polarization in dust emission. In this work, we show a new method to produce synthetic maps of dust polarization in magnetized turbulent ISM from more abundant high-resolution HI data. By using Velocity Channel Gradient (VChG) technique, we are able to predict both direction and degree of dust polarization by investigating spectroscopic HI information in position-position-velocity (PPV) space. We applied our approach to The Galactic Arecibo L-band feed Array HI (GALFA-HI) data, and find a good correspondence between synthesized maps and PLANCK's polarization measurements at 353 GHz.
