The low-frequency flattening of the radio spectrum of giant HII regions in M 101

L. Gajović, V. Heesen, M. Brüggen +10

In galaxies, the flattening of the spectrum at low radio frequencies below 300 MHz has been the subject of some debate. A turnover at low frequencies could be caused by multiple ph…

The twisted jets and magnetic fields of the extended radio galaxy 4C 70.19

M. Weżgowiec, M. Jamrozy, K. T. Chyży +4

The appearance of the jets and lobes of some radio galaxies makes it difficult to assign them to a known class of objects. This is often due to the activity of the central engine a…

Hot magnetic halo of NGC628 (M74)

M. Wezgowiec, R. Beck, M. Hanasz +4

In several spiral galaxies that are observed face-on, large-scale ordered magnetic fields (the so-called magnetic arms) were found. One of the explanations was the action of the ma…

Dynamical analysis of the complex radio structure in 3C 293: Clues on a rapid jet realignment in X-shaped radio galaxies

J. Machalski, M. Jamrozy, L. Stawarz +1

Radio galaxies classified as X-shaped/winged, are characterised by two pairs of extended and misaligned lobes, which suggest a rapid realignment of the jet axis, for which a potent…

CHANG-ES VII: Magnetic outflows from the Virgo cluster galaxy NGC 4388

Ancor Damas-Segovia, Rainer Beck, Bernd Vollmer +8

We investigate the effects of ram pressure on the ordered magnetic field of a galaxy hosting a radio halo and strong nuclear outflows. New radio images in total and polarized inten…

Hot gas and magnetic arms of NGC 6946: indications for reconnection heating?

M. Wezgowiec, M. Ehle, R. Beck

The grand-design face-on spiral galaxy NGC6946 is remarkable because of its high star formation activity, the massive northern spiral arm, and the magnetic arms, which are observed…
