LMC 2超壳层NGC 2100的磁场结构

The Magnetic Field Structure of the LMC 2 Supershell: NGC 2100

摘要:

本文介绍了NGC 2100及其周围环境的U、B、V、R、I偏振成像测量,这些环境构成了LMC 2超壳层的一部分。观察到的位置角分布的形态提供了在该环境中投射的磁场的示踪剂。我们的偏振图详细区域表现出类似对齐的偏振位置角,以及更复杂的位置角模式。我们在42 x 24 pc到104 x 83 pc的空间尺度上观察相干场区域,并推断$\sim14-30μ$ G的投影场强。我们建议,从LMC 2环境的全球流出的叠加,以及在NGC 2100内创建的流出,在该地区产生独特的字段的几何形状。

英文摘要:

We present U,B,V,R,I imaging polarimetry of NGC 2100 and its surrounding environment, which comprise a part of the LMC 2 supershell. The morphology of the observed position angle distribution provides a tracer of the projected magnetic field in this environment. Our polarization maps detail regions exhibiting similarly aligned polarization position angles, as well as more complex position angle patterns. We observe regions of coherent fields on spatial scales of 42 x 24 pc to 104 x 83 pc, and infer projected field strengths of $\sim14-30μ$G. We propose that the superposition of global outflows from the LMC 2 environment, as well as outflows created within NGC 2100, produce the unique field geometry in the region.
