摘要:

我们提出了一个简单的,统一的模型,可以解释两个最明亮的,大规模的,弥漫的,极化的无线电功能在天空中,北极支线(NPR)和风扇区域,以及其他几个突出的循环。我们认为它们是长的,磁化的,平行的结构,围绕着太阳嵌入其中的局部臂和/或局部泡。我们表明,这个模型是与大量的观测研究,这些地区是一致的,并能够解决一个明显的矛盾,在文献中,这表明高纬度的部分是附近的,而低纬度的部分更遥远。了解这种局部发射的贡献对于建立一个完整的银河系磁场模型至关重要。这些非常接近的结构还提供了背景信息,以帮助理解现代射电望远镜越来越多地观察到的类似非热丝状结构。

英文摘要:

We present a simple, unified model that can explain two of the brightest, large-scale, diffuse, polarized radio features in the sky, the North Polar Spur (NPS) and the Fan Region, along with several other prominent loops. We suggest that they are long, magnetized, and parallel filamentary structures that surround the Local arm and/or Local Bubble, in which the Sun is embedded. We show this model is consistent with the large number of observational studies on these regions, and is able to resolve an apparent contradiction in the literature that suggests the high latitude portion of the NPS is nearby, while lower latitude portions are more distant. Understanding the contributions of this local emission is critical to developing a complete model of the Galactic magnetic field. These very nearby structures also provide context to help understand similar non-thermal, filamentary structures that are increasingly being observed with modern radio telescopes.
