Magnetic Fields in the Bones of the Milky Way

Ian W. Stephens, Simon Coude, Philip C. Myers +20

Stars primarily form in galactic spiral arms within dense, filamentary molecular clouds. The largest and most elongated of these molecular clouds are referred to as ``bones," which…

Mapping Magnetic Fields from Clouds to Cores with PRIMAger

Kate Pattle, Janik Karoly, Lorna Buhil Findlay +7

High-resolution, wide-area mapping of magnetic field geometries within molecular clouds, and the star-forming filaments and cores within them, is crucial in order to understand the…

Magnetic Fields in the Pillars of Creation

Adwitiya Sarkar, Leslie W. Looney, Marc W. Pound +7

Due to dust grain alignment with magnetic fields, dust polarization observations of far-infrared emission from cold molecular clouds are often used to trace magnetic fields, allowi…

The JCMT BISTRO-3 Survey: Variation of magnetic field orientations on parsec and sub-parsec scales in the massive star-forming region G28.34+0.06

Jihye Hwang, Kate Pattle, Chang Won Lee +35

Magnetic fields play a significant role in star-forming processes on core to clump scales. We investigate magnetic field orientations and strengths in the massive star-forming clum…

The JCMT BISTRO Survey: Magnetic Fields Align with Orbital Structure in the Galactic Center

Janik Karoly, Derek Ward-Thompson, Kate Pattle +29

We present the magnetic field in the dense material of the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) of the Milky Way, traced in 850 m polarized dust emission as part of the James Clerk Max…

A Tale of Three: Magnetic Fields along the Orion Integral-Shaped Filament as Revealed by JCMT BISTRO survey

Jintai Wu, Keping Qiu, Frederick Poidevin +152

As part of the BISTRO survey, we present JCMT 850 m polarimetric observations towards the Orion Integral-Shaped Filament (ISF) that covers three portions known as OMC-1, OMC-2,…
