The JCMT BISTRO Survey: Unveiling the Magnetic Fields around Galactic Center

Meng-Zhe Yang, Shih-Ping Lai, Janik Karoly +40

We acquired 450 μm and 850 μm dust continuum polarization observations toward the inner region of the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) as part of the B-Fields In Star-Forming Region Ob…

Magnetic Field at the Galactic Centre from Multi-Wavelength Dust Polarization

M. S. Akshaya, Thiem Hoang

We have mapped the magnetic field (-field) for a region of about 30 pc around the centre of our Galaxy, which encompasses the circumnuclear disk (CND), the minispiral, and the 2…

Alignment and Rotational Disruption of Dust Grains in the Galactic Centre Revealed by Polarized Dust Emission

M. S. Akshaya, Thiem Hoang

We study the alignment and rotational disruption of dust grains at the centre of our Galaxy using polarized thermal dust emission observed by SOFIA/HAWC+ and JCMT/SCUPOL at 53, 216…

The Diffuse Ultraviolet and Optical Background: Status and Future Prospects

Jayant Murthy, M. S. Akshaya, S. Ravichandran

The ultraviolet and optical background forms a baseline for any observation of the sky. It includes emission lines and scattered light from the atmosphere; resonant scattering from…

The Diffuse Radiation Field at High Galactic Latitudes

M. S. Akshaya, Jayant Murthy, S. Ravichandran +2

We have used GALEX observations of the North and South Galactic poles to study the diffuse ultraviolet background at locations where the Galactic light is expected to be at a minim…
