Robust magnetic field estimates in star-forming galaxies with the equipartition formula in the absence of equipartition
H. -H. Sandy Chiu, Mateusz Ruszkowski, Maria Werhahn +2
The equipartition model is widely used to estimate magnetic field strength from synchrotron intensity in radio galaxies, yet the validity of its underlying assumptions remains unce…

Simulating Radio Synchrotron Morphology, Spectra, and Polarization of Cosmic Ray Driven Galactic Winds
H. -H. Sandy Chiu, Mateusz Ruszkowski, Timon Thomas +2
The formation of galaxies is significantly influenced by galactic winds, possibly driven by cosmic rays due to their long cooling times and better coupling to plasma compared to ra…
