A MeerKAT Polarization Survey of Southern Calibration Sources

A MeerKAT Polarization Survey of Southern Calibration Sources

We report on full-Stokes L -band observations of 98 MeerKAT calibration sources. Linear polarization is detected in 71 objects above a fractional level of 0.2%. We identify ten sources with strong fractional linear polarization and low Faraday rotation measure that could be suitable for wide-band ab...
