Effects of Synchrotron Self-Absorption on Polarization Diagnostics of MHD Turbulence
Ning-Ning Guo, Jian-Fu Zhang, Hua-Ping Xiao +1
Synchrotron polarization is a powerful tool for diagnosing magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence, yet prior analyses are confined to the optically thin regime, neglecting the effect…
Revealing the spectral properties of magnetic turbulence by synchrotron polarization gradients
Jianfu Zhang, Ziqi Liu
Based on the modern understanding of MHD turbulence theory, we propose a new method for measuring the spectral properties of magnetic turbulence by synchrotron polarization gradien…
Studying magnetic reconnection with synchrotron polarization statistics
Jian-Fu Zhang, Shi-Min Liang, Hua-Ping Xiao
Magnetic reconnection is a fundamental process for releasing magnetic energy in space physics and astrophysics. At present, the usual way to investigate the reconnection process is…
Measurement of Interstellar Magnetization by Synchrotron Polarization Variance
Ning-Ning Guo, Jian-Fu Zhang, Hua-Ping Xiao +2
Since synchrotron polarization fluctuations are related to the fundamental properties of the magnetic field, we propose the polarization intensity variance to measure the Galactic…
