Investigation of star forming regions and young Stellar objects

Abstract

The study of magnetic fields in molecular clouds formed in various environments have enormous potential towards understanding the underlying physics behind the role played by the magnetic fields in the formation of molecular clouds and the subsequent star formation. The closer and isolated molecular clouds provide the fascinating laboratories where the importance of magnetic fields can be explored towards ongoing activities like evolution of the cloud and star formation. This needs a extensive study of magnetic fields on the large scales of these regions. Therefore, in general, the focus of this thesis is to explore the magnetic fields morphologies and strength in various environments of molecular clouds to understand the open issue of the role played by magnetic fields in interstellar medium (ISM).
