The magnetized disk-halo transition region of M51

M. Kierdorf, S. A. Mao, R. Beck +6

The grand-design face-on spiral galaxy M51 is an excellent laboratory for studying magnetic fields in galaxies. We present new observations of M51 using the VLA at the frequency ra…

An In-depth Investigation of Faraday Depth Spectrum Using Synthetic Observations of Turbulent MHD Simulations

Aritra Basu, Andrew Fletcher, S. A. Mao +3

In this paper we present a detailed analysis of the Faraday depth (FD) spectrum and its clean components obtained through the application of the commonly used technique of Faraday…

Through thick or thin: Multiple components of the magneto-ionic medium towards the nearby region Sharpless 2-27 revealed by Faraday tomography

Alec J. M. Thomson, T. L. Landecker, John M. Dickey +12

Sharpless 2-27 (Sh2-27) is a nearby region excited by Oph. We present observations of polarized radio emission from 300 to 480MHz towards Sh2-27, made…

The supernova-regulated ISM -- VI. Magnetic effects on the structure of the interstellar medium

C. C. Evirgen, F. A. Gent, A. Shukurov +2

We explore the effect of magnetic fields on the vertical distribution and multiphase structure of the supernova-driven interstellar medium (ISM) in simulations that admit dynamo ac…

The Magnetized Disk-Halo Transition Region of M51

M. Kierdorf, S. A. Mao, A. Fletcher +5

An excellent laboratory for studying large scale magnetic fields is the grand de- sign face-on spiral galaxy M51. Due to wavelength-dependent Faraday depolarization, linearly polar…

Statistical properties of Faraday rotation measure from large-scale magnetic fields in intervening disc galaxies

Aritra Basu, S. A. Mao, Andrew Fletcher +5

To constrain the large-scale magnetic field strengths in cosmologically distant galax- ies, we derive the probability distribution function of Faraday rotation measure (RM) when ra…
