Dispersion of Magnetic Fields in Molecular Clouds. II

Martin Houde, John E. Vaillancourt, Roger H. Hildebrand +2

We expand our study on the dispersion of polarization angles in molecular clouds. We show how the effect of signal integration through the thickness of the cloud as well as across…

Statistical Assessment of Shapes and Magnetic Field Orientations in Molecular Clouds through Polarization Observations

K. Tassis, C. D. Dowell, R. H. Hildebrand +2

We present a novel statistical analysis aimed at deriving the intrinsic shapes and magnetic field orientations of molecular clouds using dust emission and polarization observations…

Magnetic Fields and Infall Motions in NGC 1333 IRAS 4

Michael Attard, Martin Houde, Giles Novak +5

We present single-dish 350 micron dust continuum polarimetry as well as HCN and HCO+ J=4-3 rotational emission spectra obtained on NGC 1333 IRAS 4. The polarimetry indicates a unif…

Observations of Polarized Dust Emission at Far-infrared through Millimeter Wavelengths

John E. Vaillancourt

Interstellar polarization at far-infrared through millimeter wavelengths (0.1 - 1 mm) is primarily due to thermal emission from dust grains aligned with magnetic fields. This mecha…

Polarimetry of DG Tau at 350 microns

M. Krejny, T. Matthews, G. Novak +4

We present the first 350 micron polarization measurement for the disk of the T Tauri star (TTS) DG Tau. The data were obtained using the SHARP polarimeter at the Caltech Submillime…

Observing the Evolution of the Universe

James Aguirre, Alexandre Amblard, Amjad Ashoorioon +172

How did the universe evolve? The fine angular scale (l>1000) temperature and polarization anisotropies in the CMB are a Rosetta stone for understanding the evolution of the univers…
