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…
SOFIA/HAWC+ traces the magnetic fields in NGC 1068
E. Lopez-Rodriguez, C. D. Dowell, T. J. Jones +21
We report the first detection of galactic spiral structure by means of thermal emission from magnetically aligned dust grains. Our 89 m polarimetric imaging of NGC 1068 with the…
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…
