In this chapter we review recent advances in understanding the roles that magnetic fields
play throughout the star formation process, gained through observations and simulations of …

In this review article, we aim at providing a global outlook on the progresses made in the
recent years to characterize the role of magnetic fields during the embedded phases of the …

Abstract The Davis–Chandrasekhar–Fermi (DCF) method provides an indirect way to
estimate the magnetic field strength from statistics of magnetic field orientations. We compile …

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 …

To investigate the role of magnetic fields in the evolution of the interstellar medium,
formation and evolution of molecular clouds, and ultimately the formation of stars, their three …

We present 850 μm dust polarization observations of the massive DR21 filament from the B-
fields In STar-forming Region Observations (BISTRO) survey, using the POL-2 polarimeter …

We present 850 μm polarimetric observations toward the Serpens Main molecular cloud
obtained using the POL-2 polarimeter on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope as part of the …

The heart of the Large Magellanic Cloud, 30 Doradus, is a complex region with a clear core-
halo structure. Feedback from the stellar cluster R136 has been shown to be the main …

Most stars form in multiple-star systems. For a better understanding of their formation
processes, it is important to resolve the individual protostellar components and the …

We present and analyze observations of polarized dust emission at 850 μm toward the
central 1× 1 pc hub-filament structure of Monoceros R2 (Mon R2). The data are obtained …
