Discovery of a filamentary synchrotron structure connected to the coherent magnetic field in the outer Galaxy. The Astrophysical Journal, 941(1), p.6.https://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4357/ac9b58http://hdl.handle.net/10566/8660Using data from the Galactic Arecibo L-band Feed Array Continuum Transit Survey, we report the discovery of two previously unidentified, very compressed, thin, and straight polarized filaments approximately centered at Galactic coordinates, (l, b) = (182°. 5, − 4°. 0), which we call G182.5–4.0. Using data from the Isaac Newton Telescope Galactic Plane Survey, we also find straight, long, and extremely thin Hα filaments coincident with the radio emission. These filaments are positioned in projection at the edge of the Orion-Eridanus superbubble and we find evidence indicating that the filaments align with the coherent magnetic field of the outer Galaxy. We find a lower limit on the total radio flux at 1.4 GHz to be 0.7 ± 0.3 Jy with an average linearly polarized fraction of 40 %20 30 - +. We consider various scenarios that could explain the origin of these filaments, including a shell type supernova remnant (SNR), a bow shock nebula associated with a pulsar, or relic fragments from one or more supernova explosions in the adjacent superbubble, with a hybrid scenario being most likely.enfilamentary synchrotron structurecoherent magnetic fieldouter galaxygalactic planesupernova remnant (SNR)Article
