Polarization in the GG Tau Ring—Confronting Dust Self-scattering, Dust Mechanical and Magnetic Alignment, Spirals, and Dust Grain Drift

Polarization in the GG Tau Ring—Confronting Dust Self-scattering, Dust Mechanical and Magnetic Alignment, Spirals, and Dust Grain Drift

We report Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) polarization observations at 3 and 0.9 mm toward the GG Tau A system. In the ring, the percentage is relatively homogeneous at 3 mm, being 1.2%, while it exhibits a clear radial variation at 0.9 mm with a mean increasing from 0.6% to 2.8%...
