摘要:

本文给出了用JCMT的POL-2仪器观测到的850 μ m,$μ$ m偏振尘埃辐射在IRDC G34.43+0.24中映射的B场。我们研究的磁场的几何形状和强度在北部,中部和南部地区的灯丝。整个磁场的几何形状是有序的,并与灯丝的主轴紧密垂直,特别是在包含中央团块MM 1和MM 2的区域,而北部的MM 3具有与其主轴对齐的磁场取向。在MM 1和MM 2区域中,从大尺度(14 $\arcsec$处的POL-2和10 $\arcsec$处的SHARP)到小尺度(2.5 $\arcsec$处的TADPOL和1.5 $\arcsec$处的SMA),总体场取向是均匀的。来自Tang等人的MM 3中350 μ l、$μ$ m处的SHARP/CSO观察结果显示了与我们的POL-2观察结果相似的趋势。TADPOL观测表明,在MM 1/MM 2中的磁场几何形状与吸积细丝的MHD模拟一致。利用更新后的Davis-Ehrasekhar-Fermi关系,我们得到了G34中心、北部和南部区域的天平面磁场强度分别为470 $\pm$ 190\,$μ$ G,100 $\pm$ 40\,$μ$ G和60 $\pm$ 34\,$μ$ G。场强的估计值,结合文献中的柱密度和速度分散值,表明G34在临界参数$\rm λ$值为0.8 $\pm$ 0.4、1.1 $\pm$ 0.8和0.9 $\pm$ 0.5的情况下,在中部、北部和南部区域分别处于临界状态。G34中的湍流运动是亚阿尔夫文型的,在三个区域中的阿尔夫文型马赫数分别为0.34 $\pm$ 0.13、0.53 $\pm$ 0.30和0.49 $\pm$ 0.26。在G34.43+0.24中观测到的对齐的B场与理论模型一致,表明B场在引导由重力驱动的云的收缩中起着重要作用。

英文摘要:

We present the B-fields mapped in IRDC G34.43+0.24 using 850\,$μ$m polarized dust emission observed with the POL-2 instrument at JCMT. We examine the magnetic field geometries and strengths in the northern, central, and southern regions of the filament. The overall field geometry is ordered and aligned closely perpendicular to the filament's main axis, particularly in regions containing the central clumps MM1 and MM2, whereas MM3 in the north has field orientations aligned with its major axis. The overall field orientations are uniform at large (POL-2 at 14$\arcsec$ and SHARP at 10$\arcsec$) to small scales (TADPOL at 2.5$\arcsec$ and SMA at 1.5$\arcsec$) in the MM1 and MM2 regions. SHARP/CSO observations in MM3 at 350\,$μ$m from Tang et al. show a similar trend as seen in our POL-2 observations. TADPOL observations demonstrate a well-defined field geometry in MM1/MM2 consistent with MHD simulations of accreting filaments. We obtained a plane-of-sky magnetic field strength of 470$\pm$190\,$μ$G, 100$\pm$40\,$μ$G, and 60$\pm$34\,$μ$G in the central, northern and southern regions of G34, respectively, using the updated Davis-Chandrasekhar-Fermi relation. The estimated value of field strength, combined with column density and velocity dispersion values available in the literature, suggests G34 to be marginally critical with criticality parameter $\rm λ$ values 0.8$\pm$0.4, 1.1$\pm$0.8, and 0.9$\pm$0.5 in the central, northern, and southern regions, respectively. The turbulent motions in G34 are sub-Alfvénic with Alfvénic Mach numbers of 0.34$\pm$0.13, 0.53$\pm$0.30, and 0.49$\pm$0.26 in the three regions. The observed aligned B-fields in G34.43+0.24 are consistent with theoretical models suggesting that B-fields play an important role in guiding the contraction of the cloud driven by gravity.
