Probing 3D Magnetic Fields Using Thermal Dust Polarization and Grain Alignment Theory
Magnetic fields are ubiquitous in the Universe and are thought to play an important role in various astrophysical processes. Polarization of thermal emission from dust grains aligned with the magnetic field is widely used to measure the 2D magnetic field projected onto the plane of the sky, but its...
