Milky Way Atlas: A radial-velocity-resolved, three-dimensional map of H I within 1.25 kpc

Lewis McCallum, Laurin Söding, Mareike Berkner +9

We present a velocity-resolved three-dimensional map of local atomic hydrogen (HI) within 1.25 kpc of the Sun, tackling the challenge of converting emission from position-position-…

TRIShUL: Technique for Reconstructing magnetic Interstellar Structure Using starLight polarization

Namita Uppal, Konstantinos Tassis, Vasiliki Pavlidou +2

We present a novel technique to decompose line-of-sight (LOS) stellar polarization as a function of distance, aimed at reconstructing three dimensional (3D) plane-of-sky (POS) magn…

Evidence for cloud-to-cloud variations in the ratio of polarized thermal dust emission to starlight polarization

Nidhi Mehandiratta, Georgia V. Panopoulou, Eirik Gjerløw +12

The correlation between optical starlight polarization and polarized thermal dust emission can be used to infer intrinsic dust properties. This correlation is quantified by the rat…

Investigating the role of magnetic fields in the formation and evolution of striations in interstellar clouds with PRIMA

Raphael Skalidis, Konstantinos Tassis, Aris Tritsis +1

Striations are diffuse, linear, quasi-periodic, and magnetized structures located in the outskirts of molecular clouds. These structures seem to play an important role during the e…

A three-step approach to reliably estimate magnetic field strengths in star-forming regions

Aristeidis Polychronakis, Aris Tritsis, Raphael Skalidis +1

The magnetic field is known to play a crucial role in star formation. Dust polarization is an effective tool for probing the morphology of the field, yet it does not directly trace…

3D ISM structure challenges the Serkowski relation

Nikolaos Mandarakas, Konstantinos Tassis, Raphael Skalidis

The Serkowski relation is the cornerstone of studies of starlight polarization as a function of wavelength. Although empirical, its extensive use since its inception to describe po…
