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 ...

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‖

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 ...

Zeeman Effect Determines Interstellar Magnetic Fields
Physics Today, 1968The first direct measurement of the interstellar magnetic field in our galaxy has raised the question of why the field is stronger in other spiral arms than it is in our own. Despite its limitations he data give theorists new parameters for the frequently invoked role of magnetic fields in galactic dynamics and stellar evolution.

Interstellar Magnetic Fields — Past, Present and Future
1987Interstellar magnetic fields have become popular in astrophysics in recent years, stimulated by a significant improvement of the observational techniques in the radio and optical range and a refinement of theoretical models. It now seems promising to attack the question of the origin of magnetic fields and their influence on the dynamics of the ...
