We present maps of the 22MHz radio emission between declinations -28d and +80d, covering ~73% of the sky, derived from observations with the 22MHz radiotelescope at the Dominion Radio Astrophysical Observatory (DRAO). The resolution of the telescopt (EWxNS) is 1.1d x 1.7d secant(zenith angle). The maps show the large scale features of the emission from the Galaxy including the thick non-thermal disk, the North Polar Spur (NPS) and absorption due to discrete HII regions and to an extended band of thermal electrons within 40d of the Galactic centre. We give the flux densities of nine extended supernova remnants shown on the maps.

  1. Constraints on Primordial Black Holes from Galactic Diffuse Synchrotron Emissions

    hep-ph 2026-01 conditional novelty 5.0

    Galactic synchrotron emissions above 20 MHz can set tighter upper limits on the abundance of primordial black holes with masses above 10^16 grams than previous cosmic-ray electron data.
