Comparison of algorithms for determination of rotation measure and Faraday structure I. 1100 - 1400 MHz

X. H. Sun, L. Rudnick, Takuya Akahori +14

(abridged) We run a Faraday structure determination data challenge to benchmark the currently available algorithms including Faraday synthesis (previously called RM synthesis in th…

Faraday dispersion functions of galaxies

Shinsuke Ideguchi, Yuichi Tashiro, Takuya Akahori +2

The Faraday dispersion function (FDF), which can be derived from an observed polarization spec- trum by Faraday rotation measure synthesis, is a profile of polarized emissions as a…

Statistical Techniques for Detecting the Intergalactic Magnetic Field from Large Samples of Extragalactic Faraday Rotation Data

Takuya Akahori, B. M. Gaensler, Dongsu Ryu

Rotation measure (RM) grids of extragalactic radio sources have been widely used for studying cosmic magnetism. But their potential for exploring the intergalactic magnetic field (…

Estimating extragalactic Faraday rotation

Niels Oppermann, Henrik Junklewitz, Maksim Greiner +11

(abridged) Observations of Faraday rotation for extragalactic sources probe magnetic fields both inside and outside the Milky Way. Building on our earlier estimate of the Galactic…

Exploring the Intergalactic Magnetic Field by Means of Faraday Tomography

Takuya Akahori, Kohei Kumazaki, Keitaro Takahashi +1

Unveiling the intergalactic magnetic field (IGMF) in filaments of galaxies is a very important and challenging subject in modern astronomy. In order to probe the IGMF from rotation…

Properties of Intrinsic Polarization Angle Ambiguities in Faraday Tomography

Kohei Kumazaki, Takuya Akahori, Shinsuke Ideguchi +2

Faraday tomography is a powerful method to diagnose polarizations and Faraday rotations along the line of sight. The quality of Faraday tomography is, however, limited by several c…
