The magnetic field structure of the DR21 region
(1999)
We present results of imaging polarimetry of the H2 v=1--0 S(1) line towards the outflow lobes of DR21. The polarization vectors are produced by dichroic absorption in a medium of aligned grains and therefore delineate the ...
Circular Polarization in Star- Formation Regions : Implications for Biomolecular Homochirality
(1998)
Strong infrared circular polarization resulting from dust scattering in reflection nebulae in the Orion OMC-1 star-formation region has been observed. Circular polarization at shorter wavelengths might have been important ...
Identification of the exciting source of Herbig-Haro objects 135 and 136
(1997)
We have identified the exciting source of the Herbig-Haro objects HH135 and 136 by near-infrared polarimetric imaging of the associated extensive reflection nebula. The source is situated at the middle of the two Herbig-Haro ...
Magnetic Fields in Star Forming Regions - Near-Infrared and Submillimeter Approaches
(Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 1996)
In order to study the magnetic field structure in star forming regions on various scales, we have been conducting both near-infrared and submillimeter polarimetry toward nearby molecular clouds. The near-infrared approach ...
