Left: linear polarization degree pL measured on the nebula of RS Pup. The dashed lines delimit the sector used to compute the profile presented in Fig. 3. Right: position angle θ of the polarization vectors (in degrees), with contour plots from −90 to +90° (steps of 30°). The pL and θ maps result from the combination of FORS epoch 2 (reference) and epoch 1 (to fill the missing vertical bands). The field of view is 4′ × 4′, with north up and east to the left in both cases.
