Mapping the Galaxy in 3D Using Observations of HII Region Absorption with the MWA
This thesis measures the distribution of the diffuse synchrotron emission in the Galactic Plane using data from the GaLactic and Extragalactic All-sky MWA survey (GLEAM) in the frequency range 72-231 MHz. It improves the method of calculating the synchrotron emissivity along sight lines intersecting...

| description | This thesis measures the distribution of the diffuse synchrotron emission in the Galactic Plane using data from the GaLactic and Extragalactic All-sky MWA survey (GLEAM) in the frequency range 72-231 MHz. It improves the method of calculating the synchrotron emissivity along sight lines intersecting HII regions, and increases the number of such measurements from tens to hundreds. A further 588 HII regions are identified using both their emission and absorption features in the GLEAM maps. |
