Accurate polarization calibration of FAST spectral data for measurements of Zeeman splittings of OH megamasers in IRAS 02524+2046
L. G. Hou, X. Y. Gao, Tao Hong +1
An accurate polarization calibration is essential for a spectral data analysis and Zeeman splitting measurements. Two anomalies challenge our understanding of OH megamasers in IRAS…
Parallax-based Distances to Galactic Hii Regions: Nearby Spiral Structure
X. J. Shen, L. G. Hou, H. L. Liu +1
The spiral structure of the Milky Way is not conclusive, even for the disc regions in the solar neighbourhood. Especially, the arm-like structures uncovered from the over-density m…
Faraday moments of the Southern Twenty-centimeter All-sky Polarization Survey (STAPS)
N. Raycheva, M. Haverkorn, S. Ideguchi +15
Faraday tomography of broadband radio polarization surveys enables us to study magnetic fields and their interaction with the interstellar medium (ISM). Such surveys include the Gl…
G213.00.6, a true supernova remnant or just an HII region?
X. Y. Gao, C. J. Wu, X. H. Sun +2
G213.00.6 is a faint extended source situated in the anti-center region of the Galactic plane. It has been classified as a shell-type supernova remnant (SNR) based on its shell-…
Discovery of a new supernova remnant G150.3+4.5
X. Y. Gao, J. L. Han
Large-scale radio continuum surveys have good potential for discovering new Galactic supernova remnants (SNRs). Surveys of the Galactic plane are often limited in the Galactic lati…
A statistical study of gaseous environment of Spitzer interstellar bubbles
L. G. Hou, X. Y. Gao
The expansion of interstellar bubbles is suggested to be an important mechanism of triggering material accumulation and star formation. In this work, we study the gaseous environme…
Thermal and non-thermal emission in the Cygnus X region
W. F. Xu, X. Y. Gao, J. L. Han +1
Radio continuum observations detect non-thermal synchrotron and thermal bremsstrahlung radiation. Separation of the two different emission components is crucial to study the proper…
Discovery of supernova remnants in the Sino-German 6cm polarization survey of the Galactic plane
X. Y. Gao, X. H. Sun, J. L. Han +3
The Sino-German 6cm polarization survey has mapped in total intensity and polarization intensity over an area of approximately 2200 square degrees in the Galactic disk. This survey…
Radio polarization observations of large supernova remnants at 6cm
J. L. Han, X. Y. Gao, X. H. Sun +7
We have observed 79 supernova remnants (SNRs) with the Urumqi 25m telescope at 6cm during the Sino-German 6cm polarization survey of the Galactic plane. We measured flux densities…
The Origem Loop
X. Y. Gao, J. L. Han
The Origem Loop in the Galactic anticentre was discovered in 1970s and suggested to be a large supernova remnant. It was argued later to be a chance superposition of unrelated radi…
The sino-german 6cm polarization survey of the galactic plane: A summary
J. L. Han, W. Reich, X. H. Sun +5
We have finished the 6cm polarization survey of the Galactic plane using the Urumqi 25m radio telescope. It covers 10deg<l<230deg in Galactic longitude and |b| <5deg in Galactic la…
A Sino-German 6cm polarization survey of the Galactic plane VII. Small supernova remnants
X. H. Sun, P. Reich, W. Reich +3
We study the spectral and polarization properties of supernova remnants (SNRs) based on our 6cm survey data. The observations were taken from the Sino-German 6cm polarization surve…
A Sino-German 6\ cm polarization survey of the Galactic plane VI. Discovery of supernova remnants G178.2-4.2 and G25.1-2.3
X. Y. Gao, X. H. Sun, J. L. Han +3
Supernova remnants (SNRs) were often discovered in radio surveys of the Galactic plane. Because of the surface-brightness limit of previous surveys, more faint or confused SNRs awa…
A Sino-German 6\ cm polarization survey of the Galactic plane. V. Large supernova remnants
X. Y. Gao, J. L. Han, W. Reich +3
Observations of large supernova remnants (SNRs) at high frequencies are rare, but provide valuable information about their physical properties. The total intensity and polarization…
A Sino-German 6 cm polarization survey of the Galactic plane II. The region from 129 degree to 230 degree longitude
X. Y. Gao, W. Reich, J. L. Han +8
Linearly polarized Galactic synchrotron emission provides valuable information about the properties of the Galactic magnetic field and the interstellar magneto-ionic medium, when F…
