A Tale of Three: Magnetic Fields along the Orion Integral-Shaped Filament as Revealed by JCMT BISTRO survey
Jintai Wu, Keping Qiu, Frederick Poidevin +152
As part of the BISTRO survey, we present JCMT 850 m polarimetric observations towards the Orion Integral-Shaped Filament (ISF) that covers three portions known as OMC-1, OMC-2,…
The JCMT BISTRO Survey: Studying the Complex Magnetic Field of L43
Janik Karoly, Derek Ward-Thompson, Kate Pattle +155
We present observations of polarized dust emission at 850 m from the L43 molecular cloud which sits in the Ophiuchus cloud complex. The data were taken using SCUBA-2/POL-2 on th…
First BISTRO observations of the dark cloud Taurus L1495A-B10: the role of the magnetic field in the earliest stages of low-mass star formation
Derek Ward-Thompson, Janik Karoly, Kate Pattle +155
We present BISTRO Survey 850 μm dust emission polarisation observations of the L1495A-B10 region of the Taurus molecular cloud, taken at the JCMT. We observe a roughly triangular n…
Modelling grain-size distributions in C-type shocks using a discrete power-law model
Rosie Sumpter, Sven Van Loo
In this paper we discuss the implementation of a discrete, piecewise power-law grain-size distribution method into a numerical multifluid MHD code as described in Sumpter (2020). S…
JCMT BISTRO Observations: Magnetic Field Morphology of Bubbles Associated with NGC 6334
Mehrnoosh Tahani, Pierre Bastien, Ray S. Furuya +142
We study the HII regions associated with the NGC 6334 molecular cloud observed in the sub-millimeter and taken as part of the B-fields In STar-forming Region Observations (BISTRO)…
The JCMT BISTRO-2 Survey: Magnetic Fields of the Massive DR21 Filament
Tao-Chung Ching, Keping Qiu, Di Li +154
We present 850 m dust polarization observations of the massive DR21 filament from the B-fields In STar-forming Region Observations (BISTRO) survey, using the POL-2 polarimeter a…
The JCMT BISTRO Survey: A Spiral Magnetic Field in a Hub-filament Structure, Monoceros R2
Jihye Hwang, Jongsoo Kim, Kate Pattle +157
We present and analyze observations of polarized dust emission at 850 m towards the central 1 pc 1 pc hub-filament structure of Monoceros R2 (Mon R2). The data are obta…
The JCMT BISTRO Survey: An 850/450m Polarization Study of NGC 2071IR in OrionB
A-Ran Lyo, Jongsoo Kim, Sarah Sadavoy +143
We present the results of simultaneous 450 m and 850 m polarization observations toward the massive star forming region NGC 2071IR, a target of the BISTRO (B-fields in Star-F…
Ambipolar diffusion regulated collapse of filaments threaded by perpendicular magnetic fields
C. A. Burge, S. Van Loo, S. A. E. G. Falle +1
We numerically reproduce the density profiles for filaments that are in magnetohydrostatic and pressure equilibrium with their surroundings obtained in Tomisaka (2014) and show tha…
MHD simulation of the formation of clumps and filaments in quiescent diffuse medium by thermal instability
C. J. Wareing, J. M. Pittard, S. A. E. G. Falle +1
We have used the AMR hydrodynamic code, MG, to perform idealised 3D MHD simulations of the formation of clumpy and filamentary structure in a thermally unstable medium without turb…
Magnetic Fields and Galactic Star Formation Rates
Sven Van Loo, Jonathan C. Tan, Sam A. E. G. Falle
The regulation of galactic-scale star formation rates (SFRs) is a basic problem for theories of galaxy formation and evolution: which processes are responsible for making observed…
Molecular Clouds: Internal Properties, Turbulence, Star Formation and Feedback
Jonathan C. Tan, Suzanne N. Shaske, Sven Van Loo
All stars are born in molecular clouds, and most in giant molecular clouds (GMCs), which thus set the star formation activity of galaxies. We first review their observed properties…
Kiloparsec-Scale Simulations of Star Formation in Disk Galaxies. I. The unmagnetized and zero-feedback limit
Sven Van Loo, Michael J. Butler, Jonathan C. Tan
We present hydrodynamic simulations of the evolution of self-gravitating dense gas on scales of 1 kiloparsec down to < parsec in a galactic disk, designed to study dense clump form…
Sputtering in oblique C-type shocks
S. Van Loo, I. Ashmore, P. Caselli +2
We present the first results for the sputtering of grain mantles and cores obtained with self-consistent multifluid hydromagnetic models of C-type shocks propagating through dusty…
Magnetic Fields and Star Formation
S. Van Loo, T. W. Hartquist, S. A. E. G. Falle
Research performed in the 1950s and 1960s by Leon Mestel on the roles of magnetic fields in star formation established the framework within which he and other key figures have cond…
Shock-triggered formation of magnetically-dominated clouds. II. Weak shock-cloud interaction in three dimensions
S. Van Loo, S. A. E. G. Falle, T. W. Hartquist
To understand the formation of a magnetically dominated molecular cloud from an atomic cloud, we study the interaction of a weak, radiative shock with a magnetised cloud. The therm…
