Correlation analysis is obtained among Faraday rotation measure, HI column density, thermal and synchrotron radio brightness using archival all-sky maps of the Galaxy. A method is presented to calculate the magnetic strength and its line-of-sight (LOS) component, volume gas densities, effective LOS depth, effective scale height of the disk) from these data in a hybrid way. Applying the method to archival data, all-sky maps of the local magnetic field strength and its parallel component are obtained, which reveal details of local field orientation.

The role of magnetic fields in the multi-phase interstellar medium (ISM) is explored using magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations that include energy injection by supernova (SN) explosions and allow for dynamo action. Apart from providing additional p
ressure support of the gas layer, magnetic fields reduce the density contrast between the warm and hot gas phases and quench galactic outflows. A dynamo-generated, self-consistent large-scale magnetic field affects the ISM differently from an artificially imposed, unidirectional magnetic field.
Similar directions are obtained for the local interstellar magnetic field (ISMF) by comparing diverse data and models that sample five orders of magnetic in spatial scales. These data include the ribbon of energetic neutral atoms discovered by the In
terstellar Boundary Explorer, heliosphere models, the linear polarization of light from nearby stars, the Loop I ISMF, and pulsars that are within 100--300 pc. Together these data suggest that the local ISMF direction is correlated over scales of about 100 pc, such as would be expected for the interarm region of the galaxy. The heliosphere tail-in excess of GeV cosmic rays is consistent with the direction of the local ISMF direction found from polarization data.
We use numerical simulations to analyze the evolution and properties of superbubbles (SBs), driven by multiple supernovae (SNe), that propagate into the two-phase (warm/cold), cloudy interstellar medium (ISM). We consider a range of mean background d
ensities n_avg=0.1-10 cm^{-3} and intervals between SNe dt_sn=0.01-1 Myr, and follow each SB until the radius reaches (1-2)H, where H is the characteristic ISM disk thickness. Except for embedded dense clouds, each SB is hot until a time t_sf,m when the shocked warm gas at the outer front cools and forms an overdense shell. Subsequently, diffuse gas in the SB interior remains at T_h 10^6-10^7K with expansion velocity v_h~10^2-10^3km/s (both highest for low dt_sn). At late times, the warm shell gas velocities are several 10s to ~100km/s. While shell velocities are too low to escape from a massive galaxy, they are high enough to remove substantial mass from dwarfs. Dense clouds are also accelerated, reaching a few to 10s of km/s. We measure the mass in hot gas per SN, M_h/N_SN, and the total radial momentum of the bubble per SN, p_b/N_SN. After t_sf,m, M_h/N_SN 10-100M_sun (highest for low n_avg), while p_b/N_SN 0.7-3x10^5M_sun km/s (highest for high dt_sn). If galactic winds in massive galaxies are loaded by the hot gas in SBs, we conclude that the mass-loss rates would generally be lower than star formation rates. Only if the SN cadence is much higher than typical in galactic disks, as may occur for nuclear starbursts, SBs can break out while hot and expel up to 10 times the mass locked up in stars. The momentum injection values, p_b/N_SN, are consistent with requirements to control star formation rates in galaxies at observed levels.
The IMAGINE Consortium aims to bring modeling of the magnetic field of the Milky Way to a next level, by using Bayesian inference. IMAGINE includes an open-source modular software pipeline that optimizes parameters in a user-defined Galactic magnetic
field model against various selected observational datasets. Bayesian priors can be added as external probabilistic constraints of the model parameters. These conference proceedings describe the science goals of the IMAGINE Consortium, the software pipeline and its inputs, viz observational data sets, Galactic magnetic field models, and Bayesian priors.
We search for observational signatures of magnetic helicity in data from all-sky radio polarization surveys of the Milky Way Galaxy. Such a detection would help confirm the dynamo origin of the field and may provide new observational constraints for
its shape. We compare our observational results to simulated observations for both a simple helical field, and for a more complex field that comes from a solution to the dynamo equation. Our simulated observations show that the large-scale helicity of a magnetic field is reflected in the large-scale structure of the fractional polarization derived from the observed synchrotron radiation and Faraday depth of the diffuse Galactic synchrotron emission. Comparing the models with the observations provides evidence for the presence of a quadrupolar magnetic field with a vertical component that is pointing away from the observer in both hemispheres of the Milky Way Galaxy. Since there is no reason to believe that the Galactic magnetic field is unusual when compared to other galaxies, this result provides further support for the dynamo origin of large-scale magnetic fields in galaxies.
