Properties of polarized synchrotron emission from fluctuation-dynamo action -- I. Application to galaxy clusters

Sharanya Sur, Aritra Basu, Kandaswamy Subramanian

Using magnetohydrodynamic simulations of fluctuation dynamos, we perform broad-bandwidth synthetic observations to investigate the properties of polarized synchrotron emission and…

Searching for axion-like particles under strong gravitational lenses

Aritra Basu, Jishnu Goswami, Dominik J. Schwarz +1

We establish strong gravitational lens systems as robust probes of axion-like particles (ALPs) -- a candidate for dark matter. A tiny interaction of photons with ALPs induces biref…

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…

Geometric optics in the presence of axion-like particles in curved space-time

Dominik J. Schwarz, Jishnu Goswami, Aritra Basu

We present a concise derivation of geometric optics in the presence of axionic fields in a curved space-time. Whenever light can be described via geometric optics (the eikonal appr…
