We present a detailed study of the Cep B molecular cloud based on sub-mm dust polarization and $^{13}$CO (J=3--2) spectral line observations obtained with SCUBA-2/POL-2 and HARP on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT). The 850 $\mu$m…

Star formation in our Galaxy occurs in molecular clouds that are self-gravitating, highly turbulent, and magnetized. We study the conditions under which cloud cores inherit large-scale magnetic field morphologies and how the field is…
