Modelling of Nonthermal Microwave Emission From Twisted Magnetic Loops

Microwave gyrosynchrotron radio emission generated by nonthermal electrons in twisted magnetic loops is modelled using the recently developed simulation tool GX Simulator. We consider isotropic and anisotropic pitch-angle distributions. The main scope of the work is to understand impact of the magnetic field twisted topology on resulted radio emission maps. We have found that nonthermal electrons inside twisted magnetic loops produce gyrosynchrotron radio emission with peculiar polarization distribution. The polarization sign inversion line is inclined relatively to the axis of the loop. Radio emission source is more compact in the case of less twisted loop, considering anisotropic pitch-angle distribution of nonthermal electrons.
