Measuring interstellar magnetic fields by radio synchrotron emission
Radio synchrotron emission, its polarization and its Faraday rotation are powerful tools to study the strength and structure of interstellar magnetic fields. The total intensity traces the strength and distribution of total magnetic fields. Total fields in gas-rich spiral arms and bars of nearby galaxies have strengths of 20–30 μGauss, due to the amplification of turbulent fields, and are dynam...
متن کاملMeasuring Magnetic Fields in Ultracool Stars and Brown Dwarfs
We present a new method for direct measurement of magnetic fields on ultracool stars and brown dwarfs. It takes advantage of the Wing-Ford band of FeH, which are seen throughout the M and L spectral types. These molecular features are not as blended as other optical molecular bands, are reasonably strong through most of the spectral range, and exhibit a response to magnetic fields which is easi...
متن کاملMeasuring exposed magnetic fields of welders in working time.
The assessment of the occupational electromagnetic field exposure of welders is of great importance, especially in shielded-arc welding, which uses relatively high electric currents of up to several hundred amperes. In the present study, we measured the magnetic field exposure level of welders in the course of working. A 3-axis Hall magnetometer was attached to a subject's wrist in order to pla...
متن کاملMagnetic Fields Ignorable Magnetic Fields Non Ignorable Magnetic Fields Important Magnetic Fields Dominant
Magnetic fields are considered to be dominant when εB ≥ εK , being εB = B /8π the magnetic energy density and εK = 1/2ρθ 2 the rotation energy density, for a conventional moderate B= 1 μG. They are considered to be negligible when εB < εK for B ∼ 10μG. With no assumption and no theoretical calculation, we show that magnetic fields cannot be ignored in the outer parts of a galaxy like the Milky ...
متن کاملCharacterization of magnetic field measuring instruments in presence of non-sinusoidal magnetic fields
The behaviour of the low and medium frequency environmental magnetic field meters is investigated with reference to the possible approaches that can be implemented to evaluate compliance with the field exposure limits. The investigation is carried out both numerically and experimentally, in presence of sinusoidal and distorted waveforms, which are produced by the systems for the generation of r...
