Synchrotron emission is one of few observable tracers of galactic magnetic fields (\textbf{B}) and cosmic rays (CRs). Much of our understanding of \textbf{B} in galaxies comes from utilizing synchrotron observations in conjunction with…

Studying the diffuse Galactic synchrotron emission (hereafter, DGSE) at arc-minute angular scale is important to remove the foregrounds for the cosmological 21-cm observations. Statistical measurements of the large-scale DGSE can also be…

We cross-correlate a 19 GHz full sky Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) survey with other maps to quantify the foreground contribution. Correlations are detected with the Diffuse Infrared Background Experiment (DIRBE) 240, 140 and 100 micron…
