Galactic magnetic deflections and Centaurus A as a UHECR source

Glennys R. Farrar, Ronnie Jansson, Ilana J. Feain +1

We evaluate the validity of leading models of the Galactic magnetic field for predicting UHECR deflections from Cen A. The Jansson-Farrar 2012 GMF model (JF12), which includes stri…

The Galactic Magnetic Field

Ronnie Jansson, Glennys R. Farrar

With this Letter, we complete our model of the Galactic magnetic field (GMF), by using the WMAP7 22 GHz total synchrotron intensity map and our earlier results to obtain a 13-param…

A New Model of the Galactic Magnetic Field

Ronnie Jansson, Glennys R. Farrar

A new, much improved model of the Galactic Magnetic Field (GMF) is presented. We use the WMAP7 Galactic Synchrotron Emission map and more than forty thousand extragalactic rotation…

Constraining models of the large scale Galactic magnetic field with WMAP5 polarization data and extragalactic Rotation Measure sources

Ronnie Jansson, Glennys R. Farrar, Andre H. Waelkens +1

We introduce a method to quantify the quality-of-fit between data and observables depending on the large scale Galactic magnetic field. We combine WMAP5 polarized synchrotron data…

CMBPol Mission Concept Study: Foreground Science Knowledge and Prospects

A. A. Fraisse, J. -A. C. Brown, G. Dobler +10

We report on our knowledge of Galactic foregrounds, as well as on how a CMB satellite mission aiming at detecting a primordial B-mode signal (CMBPol) will contribute to improving i…

Maximum Likelihood Method for Cross Correlations with Astrophysical Sources

Ronnie Jansson, Glennys R. Farrar

We generalize the Maximum Likelihood-type method used to study cross correlations between a catalog of candidate astrophysical sources and Ultrahigh Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECRs), to…
