SOFIA and ALMA Investigate Magnetic Fields and Gas Structures in Massive Star Formation: The Case of the Masquerading Monster in BYF 73
Peter J. Barnes, Stuart D. Ryder, Giles Novak +4
We present SOFIA+ALMA continuum and spectral-line polarisation data on the massive molecular cloud BYF 73, revealing important details about the magnetic field morphology, gas stru…
The Magnetic Field in the Milky Way Filamentary Bone G47
Ian W. Stephens, Philip C. Myers, Catherine Zucker +21
Star formation primarily occurs in filaments where magnetic fields are expected to be dynamically important. The largest and densest filaments trace spiral structure within galaxie…
The role of the magnetic field in the fragmentation process: the case of G14.225-0.506
N. Añez-López, G. Busquet, P. M. Koch +8
B-fields are predicted to play a role in the formation of filamentary structures and their fragmentation process. We aim at investigating the role of the B-field in the process of…
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…
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…
