Caption: Figure 17.
POL-2 polarization segments overlaid on 850 μm dust continuum toward NGC 2264. The yellow segments show polarization detections selected by I/σ I > 20 and P/σ P > 3. The lengths of the segments are scaled with the polarization fractions. The yellow scale bar at the top left shows a 20% polarization fraction. The red and yellow stars label IRS1 (zero-age main-sequence) and IRS2 (class I), the dominating sources in 2264C and 2264D.
