Notes. The 201 examined sources were those with a continuum flux density S150 MHz > 100 mJy. In the top list of six sources, 5% are expected to be false detections (i.e. less than one). In the full table 50% of the sources are expected to be false detections. The sources are sorted by increasing p-value. The names starting with a J are the names of the sources with counterparts in NVSS. The only exception is J132941.5+471734, that does not have any NVSS counterpart; the name comes from SDSS. Note that the coordinates listed here are those of the total-intensity source, not the exact location where a polarization peak was detected.

(a)

Due to the uncertainty of the polarization calibration, the calibration error has not been included.

(b)

These sources have multiple significant Faraday peaks. Only the largest has been included in the table.

(c)

A p-value given as … means that it was too small for the numerical calculation.
