Sequential star formation in a cometary globule (BRC37) of IC1396
Hisashi Ikeda, Koji Sugitani, Makoto Watanabe +9
We have carried out near-IR/optical observations to examine star formation toward a bright-rimmed cometary globule (BRC37) facing the exciting star(s) of an HII region (IC1396) con…
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…
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…
Near Infrared Polarization Images of the Orion Nebula
M. Tamura, R. Kandori, N. Kusakabe +11
Wide-field (~8' x 8') and deep near-infrared (JHKs bands) polarization images of the Orion nebulae (IRNe) around young stellar objects (YSOs), both massive and low-mass. We found t…
