List of factors that may be responsible for radial polarization in RX J1713−3946 and Vela Jr. as discussed in Section 5.
| Parameter | Tangential-polarization mode | Radial-polarization mode |
|---|---|---|
| (in the radio and X-ray bands) | (RX J1713-3946 & Vela Jr.) | |
| Bohm factor, η | High (2–15) if measured | Close to 1 |
| High TeV γ-ray luminosity | Only true for Cas A | Yes |
| Shock obliquity | Likely parallel in SN 1006 | Likely perpendicular |
| Age > 1500 yr | Only true for N132D & Puppis A | Yes |
| Dominance of synchrotron X-rays | Only true for SNR G1.9+0.3 | Yes |
| Low ISM density | Only true for SN 1006 | Yes |
