Abstract:
    S147 is a large faint shell-type supernova remnant (SNR) known for its
    remarkable spectral break at cm-wavelength, which is an important
    physical property to characterize SNR evolution. However, the spectral
    break is based on radio observations with limited precision.

    New sensitive observations at high frequencies are required for a
    detailed study of the spectral properties and the magnetic field
    structure of S147.

Description:
    We conducted new radio continuum and polarization observations of S147
    at {lambda}11cm and at {lambda}6cm with the Effelsberg 100-m telescope
    and the Urumqi 25-m telescope, respectively. We combined these new
    data with published lower-frequency data from the Effelsberg 100-m
    telescope, and with very high-frequency data from WMAP to investigate
    the spectral turnover and polarization properties of S147.
