Measurement of magnetic field strengths in a molecular cloud is essential for determining the criticality of magnetic support against gravitational collapse. In this paper, as part of the JCMT BISTRO survey, we suggest a new application of…
The dynamical state of star-forming molecular clouds cannot be understood without determining the structure and strength of their magnetic fields. Measurements of polarized far-infrared radiation from thermally aligned dust grains are used…
Polarimetry is extensively used as a tool to trace the interstellar magnetic field projected on the plane of sky. Moreover, it is also possible to estimate the magnetic field intensity from polarimetric maps based on the Chandrasekhar-Fermi…
Polarimeric maps have been used on the characterization of the magnetic field in molecular clouds. However, it is difficult to determine the 3-dimensional properties of these regions from the projected maps. In that case, numerical…
Angular dispersion functions are typically used to estimate the fluctuations in polarization angle around the mean magnetic field orientation in dense regions, such as molecular clouds. The technique provides accurate turbulent to regular…
We estimate the polarized thermal dust emission from MHD simulations of protostellar collapse and outflow formation in order to investigate alignment of outflows with magnetic fields. The polarization maps indicate that alignment of an…
We study the large-scale magnetic field structure and its interplay with the gas dynamics in the Monoceros OB1 East molecular cloud. We combine observations of dust polarised emission from the Planck telescope and CO molecular line emission…
We report the SOFIA/HAWC+ band D (154$\,\mu$m) and E (214$\,\mu$m) polarimetric observations of the filamentary structure OMC-3 that is part of the Orion molecular cloud. The polarization pattern is uniform for both bands and parallel to…
We determine the magnetic field strength in the OMC 1 region of the Orion A filament via a new implementation of the Chandrasekhar-Fermi method using observations performed as part of the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT) B-Fields In…
We expand on the dispersion analysis of polarimetry maps toward applications to interferometry data. We show how the filtering of low-spatial frequencies can be accounted for within the idealized Gaussian turbulence model, initially…
Optical and infrared continuum polarization from the interstellar medium is known to generally be due to irregular dust grains aligned with the magnetic field. This provides an important tool to probe the geometry and strength of those…
We introduce two new ways of obtaining the strength of plane-of-sky (POS) magnetic field by simultaneous use of spectroscopic Doppler-shifted lines and the information on magnetic field direction. The latter can be obtained either through…
The currently most viable methods to estimate magnetic field strengths in molecular cloud cores are Zeeman measurements and the Chandrasekhar-Fermi (CF) method. The CF-method estimates magnetic field strengths from polarimetry and relies on…
The {\em B}-field Orion Protostellar Survey (BOPS) recently obtained polarimetric observations at 870 ${\rm \mu m}$ towards 61 protostars in the Orion molecular clouds with $\sim 1^{\prime\prime}$ spatial resolution using the Atacama Large…
Dust polarization orientations in molecular clouds often tend to be close to tangential to the Stokes $I$ dust continuum emission contours. The magnetic field and the emission gradient orientations, therefore, show some correlation. A…
We acquired 450 {\mu}m and 850 {\mu}m dust continuum polarization observations toward the inner region of the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) as part of the B-Fields In Star-Forming Region Observations (BISTRO) survey using the POL-2…
Despite the rich observational results on interstellar magnetic fields in star-forming regions, it is still unclear how dynamically significant the magnetic fields are at varying physical scales, because direct measurement of the field…
The Davis-Chandrasekhar-Fermi (DCF) method is widely employed to estimate the mean magnetic field strength in astrophysical plasmas. In this study, we present a numerical investigation using the DCF method in conjunction with a promising…
We investigated the morphology and strength of magnetic fields in pillar-shaped structures at the boundaries of HII regions by combining three-dimensional radiation-magnetohydrodynamic, R-MHD, simulations with synthetic polarimetric…
Due to dust grain alignment with magnetic fields, dust polarization observations of far-infrared emission from cold molecular clouds are often used to trace magnetic fields, allowing a probe of the effects of magnetic fields on the star…
