HAWC+ Far-Infrared Observations of the Magnetic Field Geometry in M51 and NGC 891

Terry Jay Jones, Jin-Ah Kim, C. Darren Dowell +29

SOFIA HAWC+ polarimetry at $154~\micron$ is reported for the face-on galaxy M51 and the edge-on galaxy NGC 891. For M51, the polarization vectors generally follow the spiral patter…

Far-Infrared Polarization Spectrum of the OMC-1 Star-Forming Region

Joseph M. Michail, Peter C. Ashton, Marc G. Berthoud +12

We analyze the wavelength dependence of the far-infrared polarization fraction toward the OMC-1 star forming region using observations from HAWC+/SOFIA at 53, 89, 154, and 214 m…

Maps of Magnetic Field Strength in the OMC-1 using HAWC+ FIR Polarimetric data

Jordan A. Guerra, David T. Chuss, C. Darren Dowell +4

Far-infrared (FIR) dust polarimetry enables the study of interstellar magnetic fields via tracing of the polarized emission from dust grains that are partially aligned with the dir…

The far-infrared polarization spectrum of Rho Ophiuchi A from HAWC+/SOFIA observations

Fabio P. Santos, David T. Chuss, C. Darren Dowell +23

We report on polarimetric maps made with HAWC+/SOFIA toward Rho Oph A, the densest portion of the Rho Ophiuchi molecular complex. We employed HAWC+ bands C (89 m) and D (154 …

SOFIA Far Infrared Imaging Polarimetry of M82 and NGC 253: Exploring the Super-Galactic Wind

Terry Jay Jones, C. Darren Dowell, Enrique Lopez Rodriguez +22

We present Far-Infrared polarimetry observations of M82 at 53 and and NGC 253 at , which were taken with HAWC+ in polarimetry mode on the Stratospheric Ob…
