Infrared polarimetry of dark clouds. II : Magnetic field structure in the Rho Ophiuchi dark cloud
(1988)
K-band polarimetry of 20 sources embedded within the densest region of the Rho Oph dark cloud has been obtained. The degree of polarization ranges from 1.1 to 7.4 percent, and the position angles have a bimodal distribution, ...
Infrared reflection nebula in W75N
(1988)
A new infrared reflection nebula is identified in the W75N region. The K-band polarization map shows a centrosymmetric pattern of the vectors extending over a region 2 arcmin in size, with large values of degrees of ...
Spectropolarimetry of the molecular-hydrogen line emission from OMC-1
(1988)
Observations of the H2 v = 1-0 S(1) line at 35 km/s velocity resolution were obtained at several locations within OMC-1, including the molecular hydrogen reflection nebula. All line profiles are smooth and show no evidence ...
Spectropolarimetry of the 3-micron ice band in Elias 16 (Taurus Dark Cloud)
(1988)
Polarization data between 1.2 and 3.8 μm, including spectropolarimetry in the 3-μm ice feature, are presented for the highly reddened field star Elias 16 in the Taurus Dark Cloud. The polarization is observed to increase ...
