摘要:

我们报告了大质量恒星形成区G34.4的偏振连续谱和线辐射的毫米干涉观测。使用伯克利-伊利诺伊州-马里兰州协会(BIMA)阵列观测了3 mm波长的偏振热尘埃发射和CO $J=1 \to 0$线发射。我们的研究结果表明,在尘埃和CO J= $1 \to 0$发射一个非常均匀的偏振模式。此外,线发射在大多数速度通道图上呈现一致的均匀偏振模式。这些均匀的偏振模式与主毫米波源(MM)和超紧凑H { \scriptsize II}区域(G34.4中的中心源)之间的灯丝的南北主轴对齐,表明磁场与该轴正交。这种形态与大致从侧面观察到的磁性支撑盘一致。

英文摘要:

We report millimeter interferometric observations of polarized continuum and line emission from the massive star forming region G34.4. Polarized thermal dust emission at 3 mm wavelength and CO $J=1 \to 0$ line emission were observed using the Berkeley-Illinois-Maryland Association (BIMA) array. Our results show a remarkably uniform polarization pattern in both dust and in CO J=$1 \to 0$ emission. In addition, the line emission presents a consistent uniform polarization pattern over most of the velocity channel maps. These uniform polarization patterns are aligned with the north-south main axis of the filament between the main millimeter source (MM) and the ultra-compact H {\scriptsize II} region, which are the central sources in G34.4, suggesting a magnetic field orthogonal to this axis. This morphology is consistent with a magnetically supported disk seen roughly edge-on.
