When Disorder Looks Like Order: A New Model to Explain Radial Magnetic Fields in Young Supernova Remnants
Abstract Radial magnetic fields are observed in all known young, shell-type supernova remnants in our Galaxy, including Cas A, Tycho, Kepler, and SN1006, and yet the nature of these radial fields has not been thoroughly explored. Using a 3D model, we consider the existence and observational implications of an intrinsically …
