The Discovery of the Zeeman Effect in 38 GHz Class II Methanol Masers

Magnetic fields likely play an important role in star formation, but the number of directly measured magnetic field strengths remains scarce. We observed the 38.3 and 38.5 GHz Class II methanol (CH _3 OH) maser lines toward the high-mass star-forming region NGC 6334 F for the Zeeman effect. The obse...
