Magnetohydrodynamic Tests of Galactic Synchrotron Depolarization
Synchrotron emission from cosmic-ray electrons accelerated in the Galactic magnetic field encodes information on the role of turbulence in the magnetized interstellar medium. Although synchrotron radiation is intrinsically highly polarized, the observed fractional polarization f = P / I is below 5...
