Study of Galactic multi-scale magnetic field with radio polarization observation

Abstract:

Radio polarization observation provides an important way to study Galactic magnetic field from small to large scales. All-sky polarization surveys with broad frequency coverage are well suited for the study. In this talk, I present recent studies on supernova remnants and pulsar wind nebulae from ASKAP and ATCA observations. I will then present the results from the STAPS survey conducted with Murriyang and ongoing FAST observations. To the low frequency end, the polarization images from MWA reveal large-scale structures likely originated from local interstellar medium. I will conclude the talk with a perspective with future SKA.
