Radio sources with ultra-high polarisation
A sample of 129 unresolved radio sources with ultra-high linear polarisation (>30 per cent) has been selected from the NVSS (NRAO VLA Sky Survey). Such high average linear polarisation is unusual in extragalactic sources. Higher resolution ATCA (Australia Telescope Compact Array) and VLA (Very...Tags: mnras, arxiv, polarization, agn, nvss, sdss, vla, atca, galaxy, unresolved

- Experiments designed to measure the redshifted 21~cm line from the Epoch of Reionization (EoR) are challenged by strong astrophysical foreground contamination, ionospheric distortions, complex instrumental response and other different types of noise (e.g. radio frequency interference). The astrop...

- Polarization data from high mass star formation regions (W51 e2/e8, Orion BN/KL) are used to derive statistical properties of the plane of sky projected magnetic field. Structure function and auto-correlation function are calculated for observations with various resolutions from the BIMA and SMA ...

The C-Band All-Sky Survey: Instrument design, status, and first-look data
The C-Band All-Sky Survey (C-BASS) aims to produce sensitive, all-sky maps of diffuse Galactic emission at 5 GHz in total intensity and linear polarization. These maps will be used (with other surveys) to separate the several astrophysical components contributing to microwave emission, and in par...Tags: c-bass, polarization, cband, galactic
