Magnetic field alignment with dense cores in the transition between cloud and core scales
Sean Yin, Ayush Pandhi, Rachel Friesen +7
In a magnetically-dominated model of star formation, we expect to see alignments between the magnetic field orientation of star-forming dense cores and the cloud-scale magnetic fie…
Estimating the dense gas mass of molecular clouds using spatially unresolved 3 mm line observations
Antoine Zakardjian, Annie Hughes, Jérôme Pety +28
We aim to develop a new method to infer the sub-beam probability density function (PDF) of H2 column densities and the dense gas mass within molecular clouds using spatially unreso…
Beetroots: spatially-regularized Bayesian inference of physical parameter maps -- Application to Orion
Pierre Palud, Emeric Bron, Pierre Chainais +28
The current generation of millimeter receivers is able to produce cubes of 800 000 pixels by 200 000 frequency channels to cover several square degrees over the 3 mm atmospheric wi…
The JCMT BISTRO Survey: Unveiling the Magnetic Fields around Galactic Center
Meng-Zhe Yang, Shih-Ping Lai, Janik Karoly +40
We acquired 450 μm and 850 μm dust continuum polarization observations toward the inner region of the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) as part of the B-Fields In Star-Forming Region…
The JCMT Gould Belt Survey: First results from the Corona Australis molecular cloud and evidence of variable dust emissivity indices in the Coronet region
Kate Pattle, David Bresnahan, Derek Ward-Thompson +47
We present 450m and 850m James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT) observations of the Corona Australis (CrA) molecular cloud taken as part of the JCMT Gould Belt Legacy Survey…
