We present and describe recent radio observations of the Crab Nebula, which allow us to determine the magnetic field orientation and depolarization at unprecedented resolution. The observations were made in 1987-1988 using all four configurations of the VLA, at 1410,1515,4625, and 4885 MHz. The resulting maps were all convolved with a clean beam of 1.8″ × 2.0″, elongated in P.A. 80°, and the residuals added back in.

ABSTRACTWe have investigated the effect of various processing variables on the magnetic field orientation of a liquid crystalline epoxy. By using a modified fractional factorial design, we created an empirical model which can be used to predict the degree of orientation as a function of these variables. The model predicts the correct qualitative trends, namely that orientation increases with increasing magnetic field strength, increases with increasing time in the field, and decreases with increasing B-staging. The model also reveals some surprising effects of B-staging on the degree of orientation.

<p>The structure of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) has been the center of numerous studies over the past few decades. Defining the magnetic field orientation locally and globally has proven to be a challenging problem, due to the limited nature of observations that we have, as well as our reliance on the current paradigm of highly-twisted flux ropes. Studies suggest that not all CMEs measured <em>in situ </em>fit within the simple twisted and well-organized flux rope topology. Additionally, many of the events that can be well fitted by existing static flux rope models, do not have as simple a structure as that assumed by the models. This is clear from remote observations and multi-spacecraft measurements. With the wealth of data that we have today, as well as the affluence of research and analysis performed over the last 40 years, it is dues time to present an alternative paradigm, that better represents those data. In this work, we discuss this new paradigm and the literature leading to it. </p>

We statistically evaluated the relative orientation between gas column density structures, inferred from Herschel submillimetre observations, and the magnetic field projected on the plane of sky, inferred from polarized thermal emission of Galactic dust observed by the Balloon-borne Large-Aperture Submillimetre Telescope for Polarimetry (BLASTPol) at 250, 350, and 500 μm, towards the Vela C molecular complex. First, we find very good agreement between the polarization orientations in the three wavelength-bands, suggesting that, at the considered common angular resolution of 3.́0 that corresponds to a physical scale of approximately 0.61 pc, the inferred magnetic field orientation is not significantly affected by temperature or dust grain alignment effects. Second, we find that the relative orientation between gas column density structures and the magnetic field changes progressively with increasing gas column density, from mostly parallel or having no preferred orientation at low column densities to mostly perpendicular at the highest column densities. This observation is in agreement with previous studies by the Planck collaboration towards more nearby molecular clouds. Finally, we find a correspondencebetween (a) the trends in relative orientation between the column density structures and the projected magnetic field; and (b) the shape of the column density probability distribution functions (PDFs). In the sub-regions of Vela C dominated by one clear filamentary structure, or “ridges”, where the high-column density tails of the PDFs are flatter, we find a sharp transition from preferentially parallel or having no preferred relative orientation at low column densities to preferentially perpendicular at highest column densities. In the sub-regions of Vela C dominated by several filamentary structures with multiple orientations, or “nests”, where the maximum values of the column density are smaller than in the ridge-like sub-regions and the high-column density tails of the PDFs are steeper, such a transition is also present, but it is clearly less sharp than in the ridge-like sub-regions. Both of these results suggest that the magnetic field is dynamically important for the formation of density structures in this region.

We present the results of parsec-scale circular polarization measurements based on Very Long Baseline Array data for a number of radio-bright, core-dominated active galactic nuclei obtained simultaneously at 22 and 15 GHz. The degrees of circular polarization mc for the VLBI core region at 15 GHz are similar to values reported earlier at this wavelength, with typical values of a few tenths of a percent. The origin of this polarization is almost certainly the conversion of linear to circular polarization during the propagation of the radiation through a magnetised plasma. We find that mc is as often higher as lower at the higher frequency, for reasons that are not clear. Our results confirm the earlier finding that the sign of the circular polarization at a given observing frequency is generally consistent across epochs separated by several years or more, suggesting stability of the magnetic field orientation in the innermost jets.
