Structures of Magnetically-Supported Filaments and their Appearance in the Linear Polarization

, 2017
Dust thermal emissions observed with Herschel have revealed that interstellar molecular clouds consist of many filaments. Polarization observation of interstellar extinctions in the optical and near IR wavelengths shows that the dense filaments are ...

Galactic Large-scale Filaments Resident in Asymmetric Environments: Clues from Cross-filament Profiles of Density and Temperature

The Astrophysical Journal
Large-scale filaments ubiquitously exist in the Galactic interstellar medium, and their radial profiles offer insights into their formation mechanisms. We present a statistical analysis of molecular hydrogen column density (N(H _2 )) and dust temperature

ACES: The Magnetic Field in Large Filaments in the Galactic Center

The Astrophysical Journal
The Galactic center (GC) is an extreme region of the Milky Way that is host to a complex set of thermal and nonthermal structures. In particular, the GC contains high-density gas and dust that is collectively referred to as the Central Molecular Zone ...

The Formation of Milky Way “Bones”: Ubiquitous HI Narrow Self-absorption Associated with CO Emission

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Long and skinny molecular filaments running along Galactic spiral arms are known as “bones,” since they make up the skeleton of the Milky Way. However, their origin is still an open question.

Planck intermediate results: XXXIII. Signature of the magnetic field geometry of interstellar filaments in dust polarization maps

, 2020
© ESO, 2016.Planck observations at 353 GHz provide the first fully sampled maps of the polarized dust emission towards interstellar filaments and their backgrounds (i.e., the emission observed in the surroundings of the filaments).

Probing properties of star forming filaments : an initial investigation of filaments' characteristics using STARFORGE simulation data [PDF]

Cold dense interstellar gas provides an optimal environment for the formation of stars. These overdense regions or “cores” are generally part of longer thread-like structures known as filaments. Velocity gradients, along and resulting from other physical
