NED object is NGC 1052; Reference is 1984ApJ...284..531W
Fig. 2.- (b) A CLEANed map of the linearly polarized intensity at 1.66 GHz
of the nucleus of NGC 1052, restored with the same beam as shown in Fig. 1a.
The peak signal is 1.39 mJy per beam, the contour interval is 135 {mu}Jy per
beam (rms noise level), and contours at 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 12, and 14 times this
interval are shown. Most or all of the peak signal is probably instrumental
in origin (see text). Away from the peak, the contours show the
signal-to-noise for features brighter than or equal to 5 times the noise
level.
