Unveiling Dominant Toroidal Magnetic Fields in a Protostellar Outflow
Tao-Chung Ching, Zhi-Yun Li, Qizhou Zhang +6
Magnetic fields play a fundamental role in the formation of protostellar winds. In the magneto-centrifugal models, poloidal magnetic fields launch winds from accretion disks, and f…

Magnetic threads and gravity: ALMA Observations of IRDC G14.225-0.506
Nacho Añez-López, Gemma Busquet, Josep Miquel Girart +14
During the star formation process, the interplay between gravity, turbulence, and B-fields is significant, with B-fields apparently serving a regulatory function. However, the exte…

Impact of gravity on changing magnetic field orientations in a sample of massive protostellar clusters observed with ALMA
Qizhou Zhang, Junhao Liu, Lingzhen Zeng +12
The magnetic field is integral to our understanding of the formation and dynamical evolution of molecular clouds and star formation within. We present a polarimetric survey of 17 m…
