## TL;DR

This paper investigates how magnetic fields influence the evolution, rotation, and fragmentation of filamentary molecular clouds, revealing that magnetic fields significantly affect collapse dynamics and structural fragmentation.

## Contribution

It introduces a model considering rotation with axial and azimuthal magnetic fields without assuming specific density or magnetic functions, advancing understanding of filament evolution.

## Key findings

- Magnetic fields decrease radial collapse velocity.
- Rotation leads to filament fragmentation.
- Magnetic fields significantly influence fragmentation processes.

## Abstract

Purpose of this work is study evolution of magnetized rotating filamentary molecular cloud's. We will consider cylindrical symmetric filamentary molecular clouds at the early stage of evolution. For the first time we consider rotation of filamentary molecular in presence of an axial and azimuthal magnetic field without any assumption of density and magnetic functions. We show that in addition to decreasing of radial collapse velocity, the rotational velocity also affected by magnetic field. Existence of rotation yields to fragment of filament. Moreover, we show that the magnetic field have significant effect on the fragmentation of filamentary molecular clouds.
