Polarization at millimeter wavelengths caused by drifting grains in protoplanetary disks

Open Access

Fig. 5

Ratio of the drift velocity and the thermal velocity in the disk midplane of 100 μm (top) and 1 mm-sized (bottom) grains. Dust grains are aligned if 1.78 × 10⁻² ≤ v_drift/v_th ≤ 10 (see Eq. (5)), otherwise they are marked in red in the figure. See Sect. 3.1 for details.
