The ATLAS OF MAGNETIC FIELDS shows the radio continuum emission of nearby galaxies. Both total intensity and polarized intensity emission is shown. Ideally to trace the magnetic fields a full correction for the Faraday rotation should be applied. When observations have been made at a short radio wavelength (6cm or shorter) the measured E vectors can be rotated through 90 degrees to give the B vector orientation. In cases where full Faraday correction has been applied this is indicated by the title Magnetic field. In most of the galaxies shown in this sample the Faraday rotation is significant at wavelengths of 10cm or longer. The colour scales are arbitrary. Images of total radio intensity are presented in the 'rainbow' colour scale (blue to red, where blue indicates lowest intensities and red indicates highest intensities). Polarized intensities are shown in the 'heat' colour scale (red to white, where red indicates lowest
intensities). |
