Contours of integrated Stokes I at powers of 2 × 0.1 Jy beam−1 of the SiO ﹩J=1{\mbox{--}} 0﹩, ﹩\nu =﹩2 maser in R Aqr. Superposed are vectors with length proportional to the integrated linear polarization and orientation of the E‐vectors. The gray scale gives the flux‐weighted average velocity, whose scale is given by the wedge at the top of the plot. The resolution is shown in the lower left corner.
