Magnetic field orientation map around the hub of G148.24+00.41 @ JCMT/POL-2
|
In a recent work, using high-resolution dust polarization observations at 850 micron, we explore the relative importance of magnetic field,
turbulence, and gravity in the early phases of star formation. We investigated the cluster forming hub of the molecular cloud G148.24+00.41.
We find that that in the hub, gravitational energy has an overall edge over magnetic and kinetic energies, thus, would facilitate the growth of star cluster observed in the hub. For details, see Rawat et al. 2024, MNRAS,528,1460
