Tracing magnetic field morphology using the Velocity Gradient Technique in the presence of CO self-absorption

Cheng-Han Hsieh, Yue Hu, Shih-Ping Lai +5

Probing magnetic fields in self-gravitating molecular clouds are generally difficult even with the use of the polarimetry. Based on the properties of magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) tur…

Statistical tracing of magnetic fields: comparing and improving the techniques

Ka Ho Yuen, Junda Chen, Yue Hu +9

Magnetohydrodynamic(MHD) turbulence displays velocity anisotropies which reflect the direction of the magnetic field. This anisotropy has led to the development of a number of stat…
