Abstract: Comparisons of visible/NIR and FIR/submm data are investigated on several spatial scales in and around the OMC-1, OMC-2 and OMC-3 star-forming regions in Orion A. Our conclusions are that the magnetic field orientations observed in the filaments are smoothly consistent with the ones probed around OMC-1, OMC-2 and OMC-3. Analysis of NIR and submm polarimetry around the BN object suggests that a rotation of the magnetic field orientation by ≈ 40° could exist along lines-of-sight in this region of the galaxy.
