SHARP
February Run at the CSO
The new
polarimeter for submillimeter wavelength, SHARP,
completed their run
in early February 2007. Please visit the
SHARP web page for complete information
of the run and the project.
Figure 1. OMC-3 map taken at 350 micron with SHARP. The inferred field
is perpendicular to the 2- and 3-sigma polarization vectors (in green
and red,
respectively).
SHARP's higher angular
resolution shows that the perpendicular
relationship between field and
filament holds throughout the region.
