Modeling submillimetre polarization of molecular cloud cores using successive parametrized coordinate transformations

We present a novel new method for modelling magnetized molecular cloud cores using submillimetre linear polarization maps from thermal dust emission. Our PolCat modelling software builds a three-dimensional core model via the use of consecutive parametrized coordinate transformations, and produces s...
