Like the Sun and the Earth, the Milky Way Galaxy has a magnetic field. This Galactic magnetic field plays a significant role in star formation and is even thought to support the vertical structure of the Galactic disk against gravitational collapse. There is no doubt about its importance, but we still know very little about the Galactic magnetic field. Since magnetic fields themselves do not give off light, they are difficult to observe directly. Dr. Anna Ordog is a post-doctoral researcher at the Dominion Radio Astrophysical Observatory. In this inaugural episode of the PAM Talks, PhD student Pooja Woosaree interviews Dr. Ordog and learns how radio astronomy is used to detect and model the Magnetic field of the Milky Way Galaxy.
