28-40GHz variability and polarimetry
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
We observed 51 sources in the Q-U-I JOint TEnerife (QUIJOTE) cosmological fields which were brighter than 1Jy at 30GHz in the Planck Point Source Catalogue (version 1), with the Very Large Array at 28-40GHz, in order to characterise their high-radio-frequency variability and polarization properties.
Description
We find a roughly log-normal distribution of polarization fractions with a median of 2%, in agreement with previous studies, and a median rotation measure (RM) of ~1110rad/m^2^ with one outlier up to ~64000rad/m^2^ which is among the highest RMs measured in quasar cores.
We find hints of a correlation between the total intensity flux density and median polarization fraction. We find 59% of sources are variable in total intensity, and 100% in polarization at 3{sigma} level, with no apparent correlation between total intensity variability and polarization variability. This indicates that it will be difficult to model these sources without simultaneous polarimetric monitoring observations and they will need to be masked for cosmological analysis.
