Observed Faraday effects in damped Ly α absorbers and Lyman limit systems: The magnetized environment of galactic building blocks at redshift = 2
Protogalactic environments are typically identified using quasar absorption lines and can manifest as Damped Lyman-alpha Absorbers (DLAs) and Lyman Limit Systems (LLSs). We use radio observations of Faraday effects to test whether these galactic building blocks host a magnetized medium, by combining...
