探测河外磁场的引力透镜系统

Gravitational Lens Systems to probe Extragalactic Magnetic Fields

D. Narasimha, S. M. Chitre

摘要:

多重成像引力透镜系统的法拉第旋转测量可以有效地用来探测透镜星系和星系团中大尺度有序磁场的存在。现有的透镜系统样本似乎表明,在与旋涡星系有些相似的巨型椭圆星系中存在着相干的大尺度磁场。

英文摘要:

The Faraday rotation measurements of multiply-imaged gravitational lens systems can be effectively used to probe the existence of large-scale ordered magnetic fields in lensing galaxies and galaxy clusters. The available sample of lens systems appears to suggest the presence of a coherent large-scale magnetic field in giant elliptical galaxies somewhat similar to the spiral galaxies.
