Interstellar magnetic field effects on the heliosphere
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2003This paper summarizes the numerical results obtained by three‐dimensional MHD simulations of the interaction between the solar wind and interstellar medium in Ratkiewicz and Ben‐Jaffel [2002], Ratkiewicz and McKenzie [2002], and Ratkiewicz and Webb [2002].

Interstellar: The Galactic Magnetic Field
Publications of the Astronomical Society of Australia, 1969Over a period of one year from March 1967, the 24-inch rotatable telescope at Siding Spring Observatory was used to make polarization measurements for about 1400 stars, most of which were within 400 pc of the Sun. It was found that the E vectors of the polarization formed quite definite patterns on the sky which could only be produced if the magnetic ...

Interstellar Polarization and Magnetic Fields
1987Since the work of Davis and Greenstein, polarization of starlight is quite generally considered as one of the most spectacular manifestation of the presence of magnetic fields in the interstellar space. If polarization measurements are qualitatively able to indicate the general pattern of the magnetic fields, a quantitative analysis seems more ...

Magnetic fields in interstellar water masers
2008We report the first detection of Zeeman splitting in the (616−523) rotational transition of interstellar H2O masers. The measurements of Stokes parameter V and I spectra (circular polarization) have been performed at the MPIfR 100-m telescope. Depending on the hyperfine transition that is actually masing, we derive typical magnetic field strengths of B‖

The effect of magnetic fields on interstellar clouds
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1967I should like to say something about the equilibrium of the gas in spiral arms and about the interaction of interstellar clouds. The polarization of the light of distant stars shows that there is a quasi-regular magnetic field inside the clouds, and the Faraday rotation indicates the same for the gas between the clouds.

Magnetic fields in dense interstellar clouds
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series A, Mathematical and Physical Sciences, 1981Abstract Evidence is presented that shows that magnetic fields pervade the entire interstellar medium including interstellar gas clouds of both low and high density. The magnetic field in the ‘seed’ gas from which the denser clouds form is 0.2-0.3 nT (1T — 104G). Zeeman effect measurements of neutral hydrogen show that stronger fields
