We study a conspicuous ring-like structure with a radius of about 1.4 degrees which was observed with the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope (WSRT) at 5 frequencies around 350 MHz. This ring is very prominent in Stokes Q and U, and less…
Giant radio galaxies (GRGs) are physically large radio sources that extend well beyond their host galaxy environment. Their polarization properties are affected by the poorly constrained magnetic field that permeates the intergalactic…

Using the first station of the Long Wavelength Array (LWA1), we examine polarized pulsar emission between 25 and 88 MHz. Polarized light from pulsars undergoes Faraday rotation as it passes through the magnetized interstellar medium.…
