Outflows, cores, and magnetic field orientations in W43-MM1 as seen by ALMA

Abstract: Aims. It has been proposed that the magnetic field, which is pervasive in the interstellar medium, plays an important role in the process of massive star formation. To better understand the impact of the magnetic field at the pre- and protostellar stages, high-angular resolution observations of polarized dust emission toward a large sample of massive dense cores are needed. We aim to reveal any correlation between the magnetic field orientation and the orientation of the cores and outflows in a sample of proto… Show more

“…Nevertheless, our results do not rule out the possibility of random orientations of the outflows and the magnetic fields. A similar trend that outflows may have preferred orientations with respect to the magnetic fields has also been suggested in the high-mass star-forming region W43-MM1 (Arce et al 2020), although the possibility of random orientations of outflows and magnetic fields is also not ruled out in that study.…”

“…Interestingly, Galametz et al (2018) show that the best alignment between the magnetic fields and the outflow axis is observed for sources with no large (>100 AU) disk or multiplicity. Finally, in the highmass regime, Arce-Tord et al (2020) reach the same conclusions as Hull et al (2014): their distribution is best fitted by either a 50−70 deg preferential orientation or a random orientation between the outflow and the magnetic fields.…”
