Cross-Correlation of Diffuse Synchrotron and Large-Scale Structures (2009)
Brown, Shea, Farnsworth, Damon, Rudnick, Lawrence
We explore for the first time the method of cross-correlation of radio synchrotron emission and tracers of large-scale structure in order to detect the diffuse IGM/WHIM. We performed a...
Detecting Magnetic Fields in Large-Scale Structure with Radio Polarization (2008)
Brown, Shea, Rudnick, Lawrence, Farnsworth, Damon
We present our attempts to detect magnetic fields in filamentary large-scale structure (LSS) by observing polarized synchrotron emission emitted by structure formation shocks. Little is known about...
Lensed Image Angles: New Statistical Evidence for Substructure (2008)
Williams, Liliya L. R., Foley, Patrick, Farnsworth, Damon, Belter, Jason
We introduce a novel statistical way of analyzing the projected mass distribution in galaxy lenses based solely on the angular distribution of images in quads around the lens center. The method...
