Planck intermediate results. XXXII. The relative orientation between the magnetic field and structures traced by interstellar dust

Planck Collaboration, R. Adam, P. A. R. Ade +199

The role of the magnetic field in the formation of the filamentary structures observed in the interstellar medium (ISM) is a debated topic. The Planck all-sky maps of linearly pola…

Planck intermediate results. XXXI. Microwave survey of Galactic supernova remnants

Planck Collaboration, M. Arnaud, M. Ashdown +160

The all-sky Planck survey in 9 frequency bands was used to search for emission from all 274 known Galactic supernova remnants. Of these, 16 were detected in at least two Planck fre…

Herschel observations of gamma-ray burst host galaxies: implications for the topology of the dusty interstellar medium

P. Schady, S. Savaglio, T. Mueller +11

Long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are indisputably related to star formation, and their vast luminosity in gamma rays pin-points regions of star formation independent of galaxy…

Colour matters: the effects of lensing on the positional offsets between optical and submillimetre galaxies in Herschel-ATLAS

N. Bourne, S. J. Maddox, L. Dunne +9

We report an unexpected variation in the positional offset distributions between Herschel-ATLAS sub-millimetre (submm) sources and their optical associations, depending on both 250…
