We compute polarization maps for molecular cloud cores modeled as magnetized singular isothermal toroids, under the assumption that the emitting dust grains are aspherical and aligned with the large-scale magnetic field. We show that,…

Interstellar polarization at far-infrared through millimeter wavelengths (0.1 - 1 mm) is primarily due to thermal emission from dust grains aligned with magnetic fields. This mechanism has led to studies of magnetic fields in a variety of…

Context. The polarized thermal emission from interstellar dust offers a valuable tool for probing both the dust and the magnetic field in the interstellar medium (ISM). However, existing observations only yield the total amount of dust…

Accurately measuring the magnetic field in the ISM is essential for understanding star-formation processes. We searched archival data of the Submillimeter Array (SMA) for evidence of circular polarization in common molecular tracers, most…

Interstellar polarization from aligned dust grains can be measured both in transmission at visible and near-infrared wavelengths and in emission at far-infrared and sub-mm wavelengths. These observations can help predict the behavior of…

Interstellar dust grains are often aligned. If the grain alignment direction varies along the line of sight, the thermal emission becomes circularly-polarized. In the diffuse interstellar medium, the circular polarization at far-infrared…

Polarized dust emission outside of disks reveal the magnetic field morphology of molecular clouds. Within disks, however, polarized dust emission can arise from very different mechanisms (e.g., self-scattering), and each of them are useful…

Fluorescence emission lines are broadly applied in observation for diffuse medium in the universe. They are normally observed around strong pumping source, tracing the gas in circumstellar medium, reflection nebula, and H\,{\sc ii} regions,…

Context: We investigate non-Zeeman circular polarization and linear polarization levels of up to 1% of $^{12}$CO spectral line emission detected in a shocked molecular clump around the supernova remnant (SNR) IC 443, with the goal of…

The first polarimetric images of the OMC-3 region of the Orion A filamentary molecular cloud are presented. Using the JCMT, we have detected polarized thermal emission at 850 microns from dust along a 6' length of the dense filament. The…

Polarization carries information about the magnetic fields in interstellar clouds. The observations of polarized dust emission are used to study the role of magnetic fields in the evolution of molecular clouds and the initial phases of…

We present the polarization detections in DR21(OH) from both the thermal dust emission at 1.3 mm and the CO J=2-1 line obtained with the Berkeley-Illinois-Maryland Association (BIMA) array. Our results are consistent with the prediction of…

We present polarization observations in DR21(OH) from thermal dust emission at 3 mm and from CO J=1-0 line emission. The observations were obtained using the Berkeley-Illinois-Maryland Association array. Previous observations of this region…

We present a model for simulating Carbon Monoxide (CO) rotational line emission in molecular clouds, taking account of their 3D spatial distribution in galaxies with different geometrical properties. The model implemented is based on recent…

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…

(abridged) The polarized thermal radiation at far infrared and submillimeter wavelengths from dust grains in interstellar clouds with irregular magnetic fields is simulated. We show that the polarization properties of quiescent clouds and…

We aim to investigate the polarization properties of a starless core in a very early evolutionary stage. Linear polarization data reveal the properties of the dust grains in the distinct phases of the interstellar medium. Our goal is to…

Using the imaging polarimeter for the Submillimeter Common User Bolometric Array at the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope, we have detected polarized thermal emission at 850 micron from dust toward three star-forming core systems in the Orion B…

Interstellar linear polarization occurs when starlight passes through elongated dust grains aligned by interstellar magnetic fields. The observed polarization can come from different dust structures along the line of sight (LOS). By…

We present the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) observations of linearly polarized 1.1 mm continuum emission at $\sim$0.14" (55 au) resolution and CO ($J$=2$-$1) emission at $\sim$1.5" (590 au) resolution towards one…
