The JCMT BISTRO Survey: Magnetic Fields Align with Orbital Structure in the Galactic Center

The JCMT BISTRO Survey: Magnetic Fields Align with Orbital Structure in the Galactic Center

We present the magnetic field in the dense material of the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) of the Milky Way, traced in 850 μ m polarized dust emission as part of the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope B -fields in STar-forming Region Observations survey. We observe a highly ordered magnetic field across the...
