Mapping Galactic Clouds with the Balloon-Borne Large ApertureSubmillimeter Telescope (BLAST)

Description:

One of the most pressing open questions in star formation is the role of magnetic fields relative to turbulence and gravity, and how these three processes set the stellar initial mass function and star formation efficiency. In this work, we present the state of BLAST-TNG (the Balloon-borne Large Aperture Submillimeter...

Interstellar Dust Polarimetry with BLASTPol and BLAST-TNG

Description:

Polarized emission from aligned interstellar dust is both a crucial tool for studies of magnetism in the interstellar medium (ISM) and a troublesome contaminant in studies of the polarized cosmic microwave background. In each case, an understanding of the significance of the dust polarization signal requires well-calibrated models that accurately...
