摘要：
Zeeman measurements of OH masers are used to probe the magnetic field around regions of massive star formation. Previous observations suggested that OH maser field directions were aligned in a clockwise sense in the Milky Way, but recent data from a large-scale VLA survey do not support this hypothesis. However, these observations suggest that the magnetic field of the Milky Way is correlated on kiloparsec scales.
