NGC 1569 - The ISM of a Dwarf Galaxy in the Aftermath of a Starburst PDF

The Role of the Magnetic Field in the Interstellar … Abstract NGC 1569 is a nearby dwarf irregular galaxy which underwent an intense burst of star formation 10-40 Myr ago. We present observations that reach surface brightnesses 2-80 times fainter than previous radio continuum observations and the first radio continuum polarization observations of this galaxy at 20 cm, 13 cm, 6 cm, and 3 cm.
