A Unified Model for the Fan Region and the North Polar Spur: A bundle of filaments in the Local Galaxy
J. L. West, T. L. Landecker, B. M. Gaensler +2
We present a simple, unified model that can explain two of the brightest, large-scale, diffuse, polarized radio features in the sky, the North Polar Spur (NPS) and the Fan Region,…
The Global Magneto-Ionic Medium Survey: A Faraday Depth Survey of the Northern Sky Covering 1280-1750 MHz
M. Wolleben, T. L. Landecker, K. A. Douglas +17
The Galactic interstellar medium hosts a significant magnetic field, which can be probed through the synchrotron emission produced from its interaction with relativistic electrons.…
The Global Magneto-Ionic Medium Survey (GMIMS): The brightest polarized region in the Southern sky at 75cm and its implications for Radio Loop II
Alec J. M. Thomson, T. L. Landecker, N. M. McClure-Griffiths +16
Using the Global Magneto-Ionic Medium Survey (GMIMS) Low-Band South (LBS) southern sky polarization survey, covering 300 to 480 MHz at 81 arcmin resolution, we reveal the brightest…
The correct sense of Faraday rotation
K. Ferrière, J. L. West, T. R. Jaffe
The phenomenon of Faraday rotation of linearly polarized synchrotron emission in a magneto-ionized medium has been understood and studied for decades. But since the sense of the ro…
Early Science from POSSUM: Shocks, turbulence, and a massive new reservoir of ionised gas in the Fornax cluster
C. S. Anderson, G. H. Heald, J. A. Eilek +19
We present the first Faraday rotation measure (RM) grid study of an individual low-mass cluster -- the Fornax cluster -- which is presently undergoing a series of mergers. Exploiti…
