The Efficiency of Grain Alignment in Dense Interstellar Clouds: A Reassessment of Constraints from Near Infrared Polarization
D. C. B. Whittet, J. H. Hough, A. Lazarian +1
A detailed study of interstellar polarization efficiency toward molecular clouds is used to attempt discrimination between grain alignment mechanisms in dense regions of the ISM. B…
Near-Infrared Polarimetry of the Eagle Nebula (M16)
Koji Sugitani, Makoto Watanabe, Motohide Tamura +10
We carried out deep and wide (about 8' x 8') JHKs imaging polarimetry in the southern region of the Eagle Nebula (M16). The polarization intensity map reveals that two YSOs with ne…
Near-Infrared Imaging Polarimetry of the Star Forming Region NGC 2024
R. Kandori, M. Tamura, N. Kusakabe +7
We conducted wide-field JHKs imaging polarimetry toward NGC 2024. We found a prominent and extended polarized nebula over NGC 2024, and constrained the location of illuminating sou…
Detection of polarized mm and submm emission from SgrA*
D. K. Aitken, J. S. Greaves, A. Chrysostomou +4
We report the detection of linear polarization from SgrA* at 750, 850, 1350 and 2000 microns which confirms the contribution of synchrotron radiation. From the lack of polarization…
