Statistics of Galactic Synchrotron and Dust Foregrounds: Spectra, PDFs and Higher-Order Moments

Understand

We present statistical analysis of diffuse Galactic synchrotron emission and polarized thermal emission from dust.

• Both Galactic synchrotron emission and polarized thermal emission from dust reflect statistics of magnetic field fluctuations and, therefore, Galactic turbulence.
• We mainly focus on the relation between observed angular spectra and underlying turbulence statistics.
• Our major findings are as follows.
