Disentangling 3D Magnetic Field Geometry from Turbulence: A Polarization-Based Classification Method

Sophia Kressy, Fabian Heitsch

We develop a decision tree classifier that recovers 3D magnetic field geometry from synthetic polarization and position angle maps of a magnetized, turbulent field. We test the cla…

Accelerated gas flow along Ophiuchus B44 filament: Breaking Position-Position-Velocity degeneracy

J. Alves, C. Zucker, C. Lada +15

(Abridged) Stellar feedback from massive stars in the Upper-Sco has been proposed to have reshaped the gas in the nearby Ophiuchus complex. In this framework, feedback organizes th…

Initial Conditions for Star Formation: A Physical Description of the Filamentary ISM

A. Hacar, S Clark, F. Heitsch +4

The interstellar medium contains filamentary structure over a wide range of scales. Understanding the role of this structure, both as a conduit of gas across the scales and a diagn…

The width of Herschel filaments varies with distance

G. V. Panopoulou, S. E. Clark, A. Hacar +5

Context: Filamentary structures in nearby molecular clouds have been found to exhibit a characteristic width of 0.1 pc, as observed in dust emission. Understanding the origin of th…

Mass, Morphing, Metallicities: The Evolution of Infalling High Velocity Clouds

F. Heitsch, A. Marchal, M. -A. Miville-Deschênes +2

We revisit the reliability of metallicity estimates of high velocity clouds with the help of hydrodynamical simulations. We quantify the effect of accretion and viewing angle on me…

Exploring the Dust Content of Galactic Halos with Herschel. IV. NGC 3079

S. Veilleux, M. Melendez, M. Stone +11

We present the results from an analysis of deep Herschel far-infrared observations of the edge-on disk galaxy NGC 3079. The PSF-cleaned PACS images at 100 and 160 um display a 25 k…
