The magnetic field is a key ingredient in the recipe of star formation. However, the
importance of the magnetic field in the early stages of the formation of low-and high-mass …

Observations indicate that molecular clouds are strongly magnetized, and that magnetic
fields influence the formation of stars. A key observation supporting the conclusion that …

We present a new multi-pixel high resolution (R≳ 10 7) spectrometer for the Stratospheric
Observatory for Far-Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA). The receiver uses 2× 7-pixel subarrays in …

Optical and infrared polarization mapping and recent Planck observations of the filametary
cloud L1495 in Taurus show that the large-scale magnetic field is approximately …

We present the first data release of the Survey on extragALactic magnetiSm with SOFIA
(SALSA Legacy Program) with a set of 14 nearby (< 20 Mpc) galaxies with resolved imaging …

Mergers are thought to be a fundamental channel for galaxy growth, perturbing the gas
dynamics and the magnetic fields (B-fields) in the interstellar medium (ISM). However, the …

We present the analysis of the magnetic field (B-field) structure of galaxies measured with far-
infrared (FIR) and radio (3 and 6 cm) polarimetric observations. We use the first data release …

The Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA), the largest airborne
observatory in the world, is in full operation capability since February 2014 and is currently …

We describe the data processing of the Survey on extragALactic magnetiSm with SOFIA
(SALSA Legacy Program). This first data release presents 33%(51.34 hr out of 155.7 hr …

Dust-induced polarization in the interstellar medium (ISM) is due to asymmetric grains
aligned with an external reference direction, usually the magnetic field. For both the leading …
