Catalog Service: Radio polarimetry of CSS sources
Description
We present multi-frequency VLA polarisation observations of compact steep spectrum (CSS) sources. About half of the sources are point-like even at the resolution of about 0.1x0.1 arcseconds. The remaining sources have double or triple structure. Low values for the percentage of polarised emission in CSS sources is confirmed. On the average, quasars are more polarised than galaxies. A wide range of RM values have been measured. There are clear indications of very large RMs up to about 5585rad/m^2^. CSS galaxies are characterized by RM values that are larger than CSS quasars. The majority of the objects show very large values of RM.
