Caption: Figure 7.

Distribution of angular differences Δθ = θstellar − θPlanck using 10° bins, shown with a two-component Gaussian mixture model. Individual Gaussian components and the combined model are overplotted. The distribution peaks near Δθ ∼ −7°, indicating strong alignment between the two independent tracers of the POS magnetic field.
