Near-Infrared Imaging Polarimetry of S106 Cluster-Forming Region with SIRPOL

Hiro Saito, Motohide Tamura, Ryo Kandori +7

We present the results of wide-field JHKs polarimetry toward the HII region S106 using the IRSF (Infrared Survey Facility) telescope. Our polarimetry data revealed an extended (up…

Near-Infrared Imaging Polarimetry of M42: Aperture Polarimetry of Point-like Sources

Nobuhiko Kusakabe, Motohide Tamura, Ryo Kandori +6

We have conducted aperture polarimetry of ~500 stars of the Orion Nebula Cluster (ONC) in M42 based on our wide-field (~8'\times 8') band polarimetry. Most of the near-infra…

Interstellar Extinction Law toward the Galactic Center II: V, J, H, and Ks Bands

Shogo Nishiyama, Tetsuya Nagata, Motohide Tamura +4

We have determined the ratios of total to selective extinction directly from observations in the optical V band and near-infrared J band toward the Galactic center. The OGLE (Optic…

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…
