Four annular structures in a protostellar disk less than 500,000 years old
Dominique M. Segura-Cox, Anika Schmiedeke, Jaime E. Pineda +8
Annular structures, or rings and gaps, in disks around pre-main sequence stars have been detected in abundance towards Class II objects ~1,000,000 years in age. These structures ar…
Characterizing [C II] Line Emission In Massive Star Forming Clumps
James M. Jackson, David Allingham, Nicholas Killerby-Smith +7
Because the 157.74 micron [C II] line is the dominant coolant of star-forming regions, it is often used to infer the global star-formation rates of galaxies. By characterizing the…
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…
Low Level Carbon Monoxide Line Polarization in two Protoplanetary Disks: HD 142527 and IM Lup
Ian W. Stephens, Manuel Fernandez-Lopez, Zhi-Yun Li +2
Magnetic fields are expected to play an important role in accretion processes for circumstellar disks. Measuring the magnetic field morphology is difficult, especially since polari…
Linear dust polarization during the embedded phase of protostar formation
M. Kuffmeier, S. Reissl, S. Wolf +2
Measuring polarization from thermal dust emission can provide constraints on the magnetic field structure around embedded protostars. However, interpreting the observations is chal…
Magnetic Field Structure in Spheroidal Star-Forming Clouds. II. Estimating Field Structure from Observed Maps
Philip C. Myers, Ian W. Stephens, Sayantan Auddy +3
This paper presents models to estimate the structure of density and magnetic field strength in spheroidal condensations, from maps of their column density and their polarization of…
