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…
Anchoring Magnetic Field in Turbulent Molecular Clouds
Hua-bai Li, C. Darren Dowell, Alyssa Goodman +2
One of the key problems in star formation research is to determine the role of magnetic fields. Starting from the atomic inter-cloud medium (ICM) which has density nH ~ 1 per cubic…
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…
Training of Instrumentalists and Development of New Technologies on SOFIA
Edwin F. Erickson, Louis J. Allamandola, Jean-Paul Baluteau +47
This white paper is submitted to the Astronomy and Astrophysics 2010 Decadal Survey (Astro2010)1 Committee on the State of the Profession to emphasize the potential of the Stratosp…
