+Routines to compute sychrotron from relativistic electrons, including polarization.
+Andrew Strong, aws@mpe.mpg.de
+
+20 June 2017 Starting from v3 at sourceforge 
+https://sourceforge.net/projects/galpropsynchrotron
+where it was maintained, now this gitlab will host this project.
+
+Copy of description from sourceforge:
+
+
+
+
+
+The GALPROP package computes cosmic-ray propagation and gamma-ray
+ and other emissions. 
+The extension to synchrotron radiation including polarized emission,
+ 3D magnetic field models, and free-free emission and absorption,
+ is described in  http://arxiv.org/abs/1309.2947 ,
+ published version: http://mnras.oxfordjournals.org/content/436/3/2127 .
+
+To support the paper with detailed information, 
+here is a full version with polarization, free-free emission and absorption.
+
+* Further developments: https://sourceforge.net/projects/galprop
+
+* Synchrotron_v3.tar: standalone computation of synchrotron emissivity including polarization,
+ integration over electron spectrum, B-field models with Stokes.
