Advancing Astrophysics with the SKA II
Anna Bonaldi, Tyler L. Bourke, Philippa Hartley +45
Advancing Astrophysics with the SKA II (AASKAII), written by our science community, outlines the transformative scientific advances that will be enabled by the SKA telescopes. In t…
Probing Magnetic Fields In and Around Galaxies Near and Far
S. A. Mao, Rainer Beck, Aritra Basu +14
In order to understand the magnetization of galaxies and the role of magnetic fields in feedback processes that govern star formation and galaxy evolution, it is essential to have…
The magnetic field in the Milky Way Galaxy: from large to small scales
Xiaohui Sun, Jennifer West, Marijke Haverkorn +6
The Milky Way is the galaxy in which we can study its magnetic field to the finest details, providing an ideal laboratory to understand the fundamental questions: how magnetic fiel…
Small-scale Magnetic Fields in the Milky Way and Nearby Galaxies
Yik Ki Ma, Amit Seta, Aritra Basu +13
Magnetic fields in galaxies span decades in physical scale, from the coherent magnetic fields on galactic scales (> kpc) to the random magnetic fields from 100 pc to the resistive…
Constraining Axion-like Particles through Multi-epoch Monitoring of Strong Gravitational Lenses
Shivani Deshmukh, Aritra Basu, Dominik J. Schwarz +2
We present new constraints on ultralight axion-like particles (ALPs) through multi-epoch measurements of differential birefringence induced due to a coupling () between th…
The halo magnetic field of a spiral galaxy at z=0.414
Timea Orsolya Kovacs, Sui Ann Mao, Aritra Basu +2
Even though magnetic fields play an important role in galaxy evolution, the redshift evolution of galactic-scale magnetic fields is not well constrained observationally. In this pa…
