The recent availability of high-resolution far-infrared (FIR) polarization observations of galaxies using HAWC+/SOFIA has facilitated studies of extragalactic magnetic fields in the cold and dense molecular disks.We investigate if any…

We present high resolution images of the Faraday Rotation Measure (RM) structure of the radio galaxy PKS 1246-410, at the center of the Centaurus cluster. Comparison with Halpha-line and soft X-ray emission reveals a correspondence between…

We discuss the regular magnetic field in the galaxy M51 on the basis of a new interpretation of polarization angles observed at the wavelengths 2.8, 6.2, 18.0 and 20.5 cm. We found a magneto-ionic halo in M51 with a radial extent of about…

We report ALMA long-baseline observations of Orion Source I (SrcI) with resolution 0.03-0.06" (12-24 AU) at 1.3 and 3.2 mm. We detect both continuum and spectral line emission from SrcI's disk. We also detect a central weakly resolved…

We report molecular line observations of the massive protostellar source G339.88-1.26 with the Atacama Large Millimeter/Submillimeter Array. The observations reveal a highly collimated SiO jet extending from the 1.3 mm continuum source,…

We present a multi-frequency polarimetric study for the quasar 1604+159. The source was observed at the $L$ band with the American Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) and the $L$, $X$, and $U$ bands with the Very Large Array (VLA). These…
