Submillimeter-wavelength Polarimetry of IRC+10216

Submillimeter-wavelength Polarimetry of IRC+10216

We present SCUBA-2/POL-2 850 μ m polarimetric observations of the circumstellar envelope (CSE) of the carbon-rich asymptotic giant branch (AGB) star IRC+10216. Both far-IR (FIR) and optical polarization data indicate grains aligned with their long axis in the radial direction relative to the central...
