5 Why to study magnetic field? Origin: primordial or dynamo? Key information to cosmic rays! Key roles in star formation/clouds Hydrostatic balance & stability in ISM - However, Knowledge on the Galactic magnetic field is far from enough!
6 Our Milky Way Galaxy: Magnetic field? Optical sky Radio sky Our Galaxy: we live near the edge! We do not know the face-on structure what is the distribution of GMC/Star-formation regions! We want to work out Galactic magnetic fields: Where does it originate? How are they connected at large and small scales?
7 MilkyWay ISM: HI Clouds H2 or H+ /Dust Giant Clouds: Star- forming / HII regions /masers Structure Spiral arms? Permeated by the magnetic field lines! The Orion Nebula in the near-infrared (left panel: JHK "true-colour" image) and in the 1400 MHz radio continuum (right panel). The field shown is approximately 6' on a side.
8 Observational tracers of magnetic fields Polarization of starlight: perpendicular field in 2 or 3 kpc orientation // B stars Zeeman splitting: parallel field, in situ (masers, clouds) ν B // maser regions & 17 coulds Polarization at infrared, mm, submm: perpendicular field orientation // B clouds or regions Synchrotron radiation: vertical field structures (added) total intensity S B 2/7, p% B 2 u / B 2 t Faraday rotation: parallel field, integrated (the halo & disk) RM n e B // ds pulsars + >1200 EGSes
9 Starlight polarization: local field // arm 9000 stars have polarization measured mostly nearby (1~2kpc) polarization percentage increases with distance Zweibel & Heiles 1997, Nature 385,131 Berdyugin & Teerikorpi 2001, A&A 368,635

12 Galactic B-Field:10 years ago Halo B-field: no idea! 30kpc GC: Poloidal field Sun Galactic center Disk field: A few kpc! 3 models: which?
13 Large-scale Galactic B-fields: B Significant progress! New knowledge Fields near the GC Fields in the Galactic halo Fields in the Galactic disk IAU Symposium 242: Astrophysical Masers and their environments Mar , Alice Springs, Australia

16 To study halo field: unique to our Galaxy Extragalactic Radio Sources <B> away from us RM<0 RM distribution RM>0 <B> to us The largest edge-on Galaxy in the sky Pulsars and extragalactic radio sources as probes
17 Anti-symmetric RM sky (inner Galaxy): A0 dynamo (Han et al A&A322, 98) Evidence for global scale High anti-symmetry to the Galactic coordinates Only in inner Galaxy nearby pulsars show it at higher latitudes Implications Consistent with field configuration of A0 dynamo The first dynamo mode identified on galactic scales
18 RMs of EGRs for the halo B-field B Only about 1200 RMs available in literature up to now... We have used Effelsberg -100m telescope to make a RM survey of 1700 sources, enlarge the cover density by a factor of three in most sky area
19 Southern RM sky? We are applying Parkes-64m telescope to improve the southern RM sky, enlarging the cover density by a factor of 20!

Yes! Clouds fields, on average, may delineate the large- scale ISM B-field! B Used as complimentary tracers for large-scale fields
57 Thanks for your attention! Wisdom from this Chinese: Investigators using various tracers or approaches probe different parts of magnetic fields, and find different and even contradictory results, which are right in their own sense, but could be all left (not wrong) and complementary for reality.
