Inferring Magnetic Field Morphology and Dust Scattering Geometry from Mid-IR Polarimetry: the Extended Aitken Method

Frank Városi, Charles M. Telesco, Christopher M. Wright +1

The Aitken method is a useful approach for decomposing mid-IR polarimetry of silicates in astronomical sources into emissive and absorptive components. Here we extend this method t…

GTC/CanariCam Mid-IR Polarimetry of Magnetic Fields in Star-Forming Region W51 IRS2

Charles M. Telesco, Han Zhang, Frank Varosi +4

We present 0.4 arcsec-resolution imaging polarimetry at 8.7, 10.3, and 12.5 microns, obtained with CanariCam at the Gran Telescopio Canarias, of the central region of W51 IRS2. The…

Mid-Infrared Polarization of the Diffuse Interstellar Medium toward CygOB2-12

Charles M. Telesco, Frank Varosi, Christopher Wright +3

We present the first mid-IR detection of the linear polarization toward the star CygOB2-12, a luminous blue hypergiant that, with Av of ~10 mag of foreground extinction, is a bench…

METIS: The Mid-infrared ELT Imager and Spectrograph

Bernhard Brandl, Felix Bettonvil, Roy van Boekel +13

The Mid-infrared ELT Imager and Spectrograph (METIS) will provide the Extremely Large Telescope (ELT) with a unique window to the thermal- and mid-infrared (3 - 13 microns). Its si…

Dust Traps and the Formation of Cavities in Transition Discs: A millimetre to sub-millimetre comparison survey

Brodie J. Norfolk, Sarah T. Maddison, Christophe Pinte +8

The origin of the inner dust cavities observed in transition discs remains unknown. The segregation of dust and size of the cavity is expected to vary depending on which clearing m…

Mid-Infrared Polarization of Herbig Ae/Be Discs

Dan Li, Charles M. Telesco, Han Zhang +4

We measured mid-infrared polarization of protoplanetary discs to gain new insight into their magnetic fields. Using CanariCam at the 10.4 m Gran Telescopio Canarias, we detected li…
