<strong>Faraday</strong> <strong>Depolarization</strong>:<br />
This is due to the spread of rotation measures, ∆ RM. It comes <strong>in</strong> two<br />
varieties:<br />
a) "Side-side" ----------- by an external screen, which tells<br />
you about the environment outside the jet<br />
b) "Front-back" ----------- <strong>in</strong>ternal <strong>Faraday</strong> rotation, which<br />
tells you about the particles <strong>and</strong> fields <strong>in</strong>side the jet.
