Input parameters.

Parameter Value Description
n0 5 × 105 cm−3 Gas density at the core
α -2 Slope of gas density
rflat 0.02 pc Radius of uniform gas density
rout 0.6 pc Outer radius of the cloud
U0 1 Ambient radiatio field (aISRF)
γ 0.3 Anisotropic degree of aISRF
λ̄0 1.2 μm Mean-wavelength of aISRF
Tgas,0 16.4 K Gas temperature at the surface
β -3.5 Power-index of size distribution
fmax 1.0 Maximum alignment efficiency
ψ 90° Inclination angle of B-field
Fturb 1.0 Turbulence factor of B-field

Notes. For demonstration purposes, Fturb is assigned a value of 1.0, representing a uniform magnetic field. It is recommended to determine the appropriate values tailored to each specific target. In this study, for Pipe-109, we computed Fturb as 0.98, 0.96, and 0.91 for the R-, H-bands, and submm wavelengths respectively. The values of n0, rflat and rout are for the Pipe-109 (see Section 4.1), and the value of γ is used as a constant.
