IRIS: Deciphering Spectral-Line Imagery of the Galactic Center by Machine-Learning on Simulations
B. L. DuBois, Cara Battersby, Jonah C. Baade +11
In understanding the 3D structure of the Milky Way's Central Molecular Zone (CMZ), we are limited by our edge-on perspective. Towards addressing this problem, we introduce Imagery…
The 10-15 GHz radio continuum survey of the Galactic Plane with SKAO
A. Traficante, C. Mininni, F. Cavallaro +63
Star formation emerges from the complex interplay between gravity, turbulence, magnetic fields, and stellar feedback, all of which vary across spatial scales and Galactic environme…
Rhea-RT: Dynamical impact of Central Molecular Zone conditions on the properties of the interstellar medium and stellar feedback coupling
R. G. Tress, N. Brucy, P. Girichidis +22
The Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) is an extreme star formation environment, characterized by higher density, higher turbulence, stronger orbital shear, and stronger magnetic field s…
SIMPLIFI -- Study of Interstellar Magnetic Polarization: a Legacy Investigation of Filaments. I. Magnetically-Guided Accretion onto the DR21 Ridge
Thushara G. S. Pillai, Jens Kauffmann, Juan D. Soler +15
We present first results from SIMPLIFI (Study of Interstellar Magnetic Polarization: a Legacy Investigation of Filaments), a SOFIA/HAWC+ polarimetric survey of Galac…
SIMPLIFI-Study of Interstellar Magnetic Polarization: A Legacy Investigation of Filaments. II. Enhancement of grain alignment near embedded protostars in the DR21 Ridge
S. Kumar, T. G. S. Pillai, G. V. Panopoulou +10
Thermal dust continuum polarimetry is a powerful indirect probe of magnetic field geometry in dense molecular clouds while at the same time providing information on the alignment o…
Polarization at millimeter wavelengths caused by drifting grains in protoplanetary disks
Moritz Lietzow-Sinjen, Stefan Reissl, Mario Flock +1
During the evolution of protoplanetary disks, dust grains start to grow, form larger particles, settle to the midplane, and rearrange the disk, mainly by the inward radial drift. B…
