DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Priscilla Frisch (University of Chicago)\n\nSimilar 
 directions are obtained for the local interstellar magnetic\nfield (ISMF) 
 by comparing diverse data that sample five orders of\nmagnetic in spatial 
 scales.  The direction of the ISMF that shapes the\nheliosphere\, and that
  is traced by the ribbon of energetic neutral\natoms discovered by the Int
 erstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) mission\,\nis compared to the ISMF dire
 ction obtained from linearly polarized\nlight from nearby stars\, the ISMF
  of the Loop I superbubble that has\nexpanded to the solar vicinity\, and 
 the ISMF direction towards pulsars\nwithin 100-300 pc.  Together these dat
 a suggest that the local ISMF\ndirection is correlated over spatial scales
  of about 100 pc\, such as\nwould be expected for the interarm region of t
 he galaxy.\n\nhttps://events.icecube.wisc.edu/event/39/contributions/2389/
