abstract
Measurements of the Galactic synchrotron emission is relevant for the 21-cm studies from the Epoch of Reionization. The study of the synchrotron emission is also useful to quantify the fluctuations in the magnetic field and the cosmic ray electron density of the turbulent interstellar medium (ISM) of our Galaxy. Here, we present the all-sky angular power spectrum $(C_{\ell})$ measurements of the diffuse synchrotron emission using the TIFR GMRT Sky Survey (TGSS) at 150 {\rm MHz}. We estimate $C_{\ell}$ using visibility data both before and after subtracting the modelled point sources. The amplitude of the measured $C_{\ell}$ falls significantly after subtracting the point sources, and it is also slightly higher in the Galactic plane for the residual data. The residual $C_{\ell}$ is most likely to be dominated by the Galactic synchrotron emission. The amplitude of the residual $C_{\ell}$ falls significantly away from the Galactic plane. We find the measurements are quite symmetric in the Northern and Southern hemispheres except in the latitude range $15-30^{\circ}$ which is the transition region from the disk dominated to diffuse halo dominated region. The comparison between this interferometric measurement with the scaled version of the Haslam rms map at 150 {\rm MHz} shows that the correlation coefficient $(r)$ is more than 0.5 for most of the latitude ranges considered here. This signifies the TGSS survey is quite sensitive to the diffuse Galactic synchrotron radiation.

Intensity fluctuations of radio halo in galaxy cluster: Insights from power spectrum estimation
Angular power spectra of 610 MHz radio halos show excess power-law fluctuations only in Abell 2744, requiring multiplicative C_ℓ ∝ ℓ^{-3} structure atop an exponential profile and consistent with ICM turbulence.
