Scientific paper

The supernova remnant PKS 1209 - 51/52 displays remarkable structural symmetry and a well-defined tangential magnetic field. Total intensity and polarization maps are presented at 2.4,4.8 and 8.4 GHz. The distribution of Faraday rotation, projected magnetic field and depolarization, deduced from these maps, are presented. The Faraday rotation is low, with a mean value of - 39 rad m^-2^, and there is little depolarization, consistent with a uniform magnetic field.
