Radio relics are elongated sources related to shocks driven by galaxy cluster merger events. Although these objects are highly polarized at GHz frequencies (greater than or similar to 20%), high-resolution studies of their polarization properties are still lacking. We present the first high-resolution and high-sensitivity polarimetry study of the merging galaxy cluster CIZA J2242.8+5301 in the 1-4 GHz frequency band. We use the QU-fitting approach to model the Stokes I, Q, and U emission, obtaining best-fit intrinsic polarization fraction (p(0)), intrinsic polarization angle (chi(0)), rotation measure (RM), and wavelength-dependent depolarization (sigma(RM)) maps of the cluster. Our analysis focuses on the northern relic (RN). For the first...
