SOFIA/HAWC+ Far-InfraRed Polarimetric Large Area CMZ Exploration (FIREPLACE) Survey I: General Results from the Pilot Program
Natalie O. Butterfield, David T. Chuss, Jordan A. Guerra +9
We present the first data release (DR1) of the Far-Infrared Polarimetric Large Area CMZ Exploration (FIREPLACE) survey. The survey was taken using the 214-micron band of the HAWC+…
The Strength of the Sheared Magnetic Field in the Galactic's Circum-Nuclear Disk
J. A. Guerra, E. Lopez-Rodriguez, D. T. Chuss +2
Recent high-resolution 53-m polarimetric observations from SOFIA/HAWC+ have revealed the inferred plane-of-the-sky magnetic field (B-field) orientation in the Galactic center's…
Tracing PAH Emission in -Orionis Using COBE/DIRBE Data
David T. Chuss, Brandon S. Hensley, Alan J. Kogut +3
We use archival COBE/DIRBE data to construct a map of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) emission in the -Orionis region. The presence of the 3.3 m PAH feature within the…
SOFIA observations of 30 Doradus: II -- Magnetic fields and large scale gas kinematics
Le Ngoc Tram, Lars Bonne, Yue Hu +13
The heart of the Large Magellanic Cloud, 30 Doradus, is a complex region with a clear core-halo structure. Feedback from the stellar cluster R136 has been shown to be the main…
The strength and structure of the magnetic field in the galactic outflow of M82
Enrique Lopez-Rodriguez, Jordan Guerra, Mahboubeh Asgari-Targhi +1
Galactic outflows driven by starbursts can modify the galactic magnetic fields and drive them away from the galactic planes. Here, we quantify how these fields may magnetize the in…
Far-Infrared Polarization Spectrum of the OMC-1 Star-Forming Region
Joseph M. Michail, Peter C. Ashton, Marc G. Berthoud +12
We analyze the wavelength dependence of the far-infrared polarization fraction toward the OMC-1 star forming region using observations from HAWC+/SOFIA at 53, 89, 154, and 214 m…
Maps of Magnetic Field Strength in the OMC-1 using HAWC+ FIR Polarimetric data
Jordan A. Guerra, David T. Chuss, C. Darren Dowell +4
Far-infrared (FIR) dust polarimetry enables the study of interstellar magnetic fields via tracing of the polarized emission from dust grains that are partially aligned with the dir…
SOFIA/HAWC+ traces the magnetic fields in NGC 1068
E. Lopez-Rodriguez, C. D. Dowell, T. J. Jones +21
We report the first detection of galactic spiral structure by means of thermal emission from magnetically aligned dust grains. Our 89 m polarimetric imaging of NGC 1068 with the…
The far-infrared polarization spectrum of Rho Ophiuchi A from HAWC+/SOFIA observations
Fabio P. Santos, David T. Chuss, C. Darren Dowell +23
We report on polarimetric maps made with HAWC+/SOFIA toward Rho Oph A, the densest portion of the Rho Ophiuchi molecular complex. We employed HAWC+ bands C (89 m) and D (154 …
HAWC+/SOFIA Multiwavelength Polarimetric Observations of OMC-1
David T. Chuss, B-G Andersson, John Bally +35
We report new polarimetric and photometric maps of the massive star-forming region OMC-1 using the HAWC+ instrument on the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA).…
