TL;DR: In this article, high-resolution Airborne Wideband Camera Plus polarimetry at 154 μm is reported for the face-on galaxy M51 and the edgeon galaxy NGC 891, and the FIR polarization vectors within an intensity contour of 1500 are oriented very close to the plane of the galaxy.
Journal ArticleDOI
One-millimeter observations of the Crab nebula.
TL;DR: In this article, the Crab nebula has been mapped at a wavelength of I mm, and the total flux of the nebula at this wavelength has been determined The 1 -mm flux is in agreement with that expected from an extrapolation of the longer wavelength radio spectrum.
Journal ArticleDOI
Infrared studies of star formation in Orion
TL;DR: In this article, the results of IR studies of the cluster of compact IR sources in the Orion Molecular Cloud are discussed in view of broad band and low spectral resolution measurements, and with attention to new measurements of the 8-12.5-micron color temperature, the 3.8 -micron polarization of the IR emission from the vicinity of the clustered IR sources, and new 34micron maps of the region which possess high spatial resolution.
