Fig. 9

WSRT 1382 MHz polarization E-vector map. Total polarized intensity is shown as grayscale image. Vectors depict the polarization E-vectors, their length represents the polarization fraction. The length of the E-vectors are corrected for Ricean bias (Wardle & Kronberg 1974). A reference vector for a polarization fraction of 100% is shown in the bottom left corner. No vectors were drawn for pixels with a SNR < 5 in the total polarized intensity image. Contour levels are drawn at [1,2,4,8,...] × 5σrms and are from the Stokes I 1382 MHz image. The beam size is 23.5″ × 17.0″ and shown in the bottom left corner of the image.
