L1448 IRS3 (A, B, &C) Perseus molecular cloud complex (~300 pc) 70" northwest of L1448mm In blue-shifted lobe of outflow of L1448mm Three Class 0 sources resolved at =3mm (Looney et al. 2000) One or two outflows (e.g. Bachiller et al. 1990, 1995; Barsony et al. 1998) No clear observation… L1448 mm A C B
3
Observation Polarimetry using BIMA CO 2-1 (230.538GHz) continuum (~ 1mm) C configuration Beam 2.5" x 4.5" Ch. width 4 km/s 2003 Oct. & Nov.
4
Continuum Emission (~1mm) L1448 IRS3 A: 0.3 M ⊙ B: 1.7 M ⊙ C: < 0.05 M ⊙ Optically thin Gas = 100 x Dust T = 35 K, β = 1 A B C

Outflows of L1448 IRS3 Integrated intensity map Red 25~9 km/s Black 9~1 km/s (V LSR = 5km/s) Blue 1~ -19 km/s (L1448 mm Contamination) A: nearly perpendicular to LOS PA 155° North: 0.001 M ⊙ = R0.0002 + Bk0.0008 South: (part of Bk0.0016 M ⊙ ) B: +20~ -30 km/s outflow, PA 105° Red-shifted: R0.0005 M ⊙ + (part of Bk0.0016 M ⊙ ) Blue-shifted: B0.0012 M ⊙
6
Vectors: B field direction L1448 in 850 μm, SCUBA Magnetic Field in Continuum Produced by J. Kirk from SCUBA archive data ~5% polarization in center Vectors: polarization direction
7
Magnetic Field in CO 2-1 CO 2-1 Intensity map 2 ch.(1~9 km/s) combined Polarization direction Outflow direction Goldreich-Kylafis effect (e.g. Kylafis, 1983) ~ 10% polarization
8
Summary and Discussion Clear results showing two outflows from A and B Marginal detection of polarization in continuum and CO 2-1 Excellent region for star formation Nearly perpendicular outflow Binary system Star formation triggered by outflows Really perpendicular?
