Joint 3D modelling of the polarized Galactic synchrotron and thermal dust foreground diffuse emission
L. Fauvet, J. F. Macías-Pérez, J. Aumont +6
We present for the first time a coherent model of the polarized Galactic synchrotron and thermal dust emissions which are the main diffuse foreground for the measurement of the pol…
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…
Probing magnetic turbulence by synchrotron polarimetry: statistics and structure of magnetic fields from Stokes correlators
A. Waelkens, A. A. Schekochihin, T. A. Ensslin
We describe a technique for probing the statistical properties of cosmic magnetic fields based on radio polarimetry data. Second-order magnetic field statistics like the power spec…
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…
Simulating polarized Galactic synchrotron emission at all frequencies, the Hammurabi code
A. Waelkens, T. Jaffe, M. Reinecke +2
We present a publicly available code called Hammurabi for generating mock polarized observations of Galactic synchrotron emission for telescopes like LOFAR, SKA, Planck and WMAP, b…
Radio observational constraints on Galactic 3D-emission models
X. H. Sun, W. Reich, A. Waelkens +1
(Abridged) We constrain simulated all-sky maps in total intensity, linear polarization, and rotation measure (RM) by observations. We test a number of large-scale magnetic field co…
