Calibrating the relation of low-frequency radio continuum to star formation rate at 1 kpc scale with LOFAR
V. Heesen, E. Buie, C. J. Huff +16
Radio continuum (RC) emission in galaxies allows us to measure star formation rates (SFRs) unaffected by extinction due to dust, of which the low-frequency part is uncontaminated f…
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…
From the NVSS RM Catalogue to Future Polarisation Surveys
Yik Ki Ma, S. A. Mao, Jeroen Stil +5
With rotation measure (RM) towards 37,543 polarised sources, the Taylor et al. (2009) RM catalogue has been widely exploited in studies of the foreground magneto-ionic media. Howev…
Investigation of the cosmic ray population and magnetic field strength in the halo of NGC 891
D. D. Mulcahy, A. Horneffer, R. Beck +24
Low-frequency radio continuum observations of edge-on galaxies are ideal to study cosmic-ray electrons (CREs) in halos via radio synchrotron emission and to measure magnetic field…
Statistical properties of Faraday rotation measure in external galaxies -- I: intervening disc galaxies
Aritra Basu, S. A. Mao, Andrew Fletcher +5
Deriving the Faraday rotation measure (RM) of quasar absorption line systems, which are tracers of high-redshift galaxies intervening background quasars, is a powerful tool for pro…
Exploring the making of a galactic wind in the star-bursting dwarf irregular galaxy IC 10 with LOFAR
V. Heesen, D. A. Rafferty, A. Horneffer +16
Low-mass galaxies are subject to strong galactic outflows, in which cosmic rays may play an important role, they can be best traced with low-frequency radio continuum observations,…
Broadband radio spectro-polarimetric observations of high Faraday rotation measure AGN
Alice Pasetto, Carlos Carrasco-González, Shane O'Sullivan +5
We present broadband polarimetric observations of a sample of high Faraday rotation measure (RM) AGN using the VLA telescope from 1 to 2 GHz, and 4 to 12 GHz. The sample (14 source…
CHANG-ES X: Spatially-resolved Separation of Thermal Contribution from Radio Continuum Emission in Edge-on Galaxies
Carlos J. Vargas, Silvia Carolina Mora-Partiarroyo, Philip Schmidt +12
We analyze the application of star formation rate (SFR) calibrations using H and 22 micron infrared imaging data in predicting the thermal radio component for a test sample of 3…
