A Tale of Three: Magnetic Fields along the Orion Integral-shaped Filament as Revealed by the JCMT BISTRO Survey

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
As part of the B -fields In Star-forming Region Observations survey, we present James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT) 850 μ m polarimetric observations toward the Orion integral-shaped filament (ISF) that covers three portions known as OMC-1, OMC-2, and ...

Determining the rotation direction in pulsars

Nature Communications, 2019
Interstellar magnetic fields determined from pulsar polarimetry in the GHz-band may be biased by mechanical-optical rotation in pulsars’ magnetospheres. Here the authors show how observations at sub-GHz frequencies can be used to resolve such a bias and ...

B-fields and Dust in Interstellar Filaments Using Dust Polarization (BALLAD-POL). III. Grain Alignment and Disruption Mechanisms in G34.43+0.24 Using Polarization Observations from JCMT/POL-2

The Astrophysical Journal
Polarization of starlight and thermal dust emission due to aligned non-spherical grains helps us to trace magnetic field ( B -field) morphology in molecular clouds and to study grain alignment mechanisms.

Interstellar turbulence, random density variations, and scintillation measurements [PDF]

The presence of random electron variations suggests that the ionized interstellar medium is turbulent. In the interstellar plasma the presence of power spectra of such variations extending to spatial scales much less than a Coulomb mean free path, Lambda

Magnetic Fields in the Interstellar Medium

, 2017
The interstellar medium – the space between the stars in our Galaxy – is multiphase, turbulent, and magnetic. Magnetism in the interstellar medium is difficult to observe and to simulate, and the study of interstellar magnetic fields is riddled with open questions. In this Thesis we make progress in several important areas.

B-fields and Dust in Interstellar Filaments Using Dust Polarization (BALLAD-POL). VI. Grain Alignment Mechanisms in the Massive Quiescent Filament G16.96+0.27 Using Dust Polarization Observations from JCMT/POL-2

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
Dust polarization induced by aligned nonspherical grains acts as an important tool to trace the magnetic field ( B -field) morphologies and strengths in molecular clouds and constrain grain properties and their alignment mechanisms.

Infrared polarimetry and the interstellar magnetic field

The Astrophysical Journal, 1989
Une bonne correlation entre la polarisation interstellaire et l'extinction interstellaire est trouvee a 2,2 μm pour toutes les lignes de visee. Un modele de champ magnetique interstellaire est presente, et montre qu'une contribution egale de la composante uniforme et de la composante aleatoire reproduit bien les ...

What Rogue Hydrogen Clouds Tell Us about Galactic Magnetic Fields

The Astrophysical Journal
Observations of the Milky Way and external galaxies support the idea that large-scale magnetic fields are concentrated in galactic disks, with halo magnetic fields at least an order of magnitude weaker.
