Abstract (from CDS):

Synchrotron emission pervades the Galactic plane at low radio frequencies, originating from cosmic ray electrons interacting with the Galactic magnetic field. Using a low-frequency radio telescope, the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA), we measure the free-free absorption of this Galactic synchrotron emission by intervening H II regions along the line of sight. These absorption measurements allow us to calculate the Galactic cosmic ray electron emissivity behind and in front of 47 detected H II regions in the region 250° < l < 355°, |b| < 2°. We find that all average emissivities between the H II regions and the Galactic edge along the line of sight (εb) are in the range of 0.39 ∼ 1.45 K pc–1 with a mean of 0.77 K pc–1 and a variance of 0.14 K pc–1 at 88 MHz. Our best model, the two-circle model, divides the Galactic disc into three regions using two circles centring on the Galactic Centre. It shows a high emissivity region near the Galactic Centre, a low emissivity region near the Galactic edge, and a medium emissivity region between these two regions, contrary to the trend found by previous studies.
