A Chain of Dark Clouds in Projection Against the Galactic Center
Takahiro Nagayama, Shuji Sato, Shogo Nishiyama +9
In the J, H, and Ks bands survey of the the Galactic Center region over an area of 2deg x 5deg, we have found many dark clouds, among which a distinguished chain of dark clouds can…
Near-Infrared Polarimetry toward the Galactic Center
Shogo Nishiyama, Motohide Tamura, Hirofumi Hatano +4
Near-infrared polarimetry of point sources reveals the presence of a toroidal magnetic field in the central 20' x 20' region of our Galaxy. Comparing the Stokes parameters between…
Magnetic Field Configuration at the Galactic Center Investigated by Wide Field Near-Infrared Polarimetry
Shogo Nishiyama, Motohide Tamura, Hirofumi Hatano +13
We present a polarimetric map of a 20'x20' area toward the Galactic center. The polarization of point sources has been measured in the J, H, and Ks bands using the near-infrared po…
Wide-Field Infrared Imaging Polarimetry of the NGC 6334 Region: A Nest of Infrared Reflection Nebulae
J. Hashimoto, M. Tamura, R. Kandori +7
We report the detection of eighteen infrared reflection nebulae (IRNe) in the , , & linear polarimetric observations of the NGC 6334 massive star-formation complex, of w…
Near-Infrared Imaging Polarimetry of the NGC 2071 Star Forming Region with SIRPOL
Motohide Tamura, Ryo Kandori, Jun Hashimoto +10
We have conducted deep JHKs imaging polarimetry of a ~8' x 8' area of the NGC 2071 star forming region. Our polarization data have revealed various infrared reflection nebulae (IRN…
Near-Infrared Polarization Images of The Orion Molecular Cloud 1 South Region
Jun Hashimoto, Motohide Tamura, Ryo Kandori +8
We present the polarization images in the , , & bands of the Orion Molecular Cloud 1 South region. The polarization images clearly show at least six infrared reflection…
