The origin of dust polarization in the Orion Bar
Valentin J. M. Le Gouellec, B-G Andersson, Archana Soam +8
The linear polarization of thermal dust emission provides a powerful tool to probe interstellar and circumstellar magnetic fields, because aspherical grains tend to align themselve…
On the collisional disalignment of dust grains in illuminated and shaded regions of IC 63
Archana Soam, B-G Andersson, Jose Acosta-Pulido +5
Interstellar dust grain alignment causes polarization from UV to mm wavelengths, allowing the study of the geometry and strength of the magnetic field. Over last couple of decades…
Probing Interstellar Grain Growth Through Polarimetry in the Taurus Cloud Complex
John E. Vaillancourt, B-G Andersson, Dan P. Clemens +4
The optical and near-infrared (OIR) polarization of starlight is typically understood to arise from the dichroic extinction of that light by dust grains whose axes are aligned with…
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…
Revisiting the Magnetic Field of the L183 Starless Core
Janik Karoly, Archana Soam, B-G Andersson +4
We present observations of linear polarization from dust thermal emission at 850 towards the starless cloud L183. These data were obtained at the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope…
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…
