Fig. 2

Profiles of the polarization degree along the projected jet axis calculated for different viewing angles θobs in two cases: a pure toroidal magnetic field (upper panel; same as models shown in Fig. 1) and an even mix of toroidal and compressed magnetic fields (lower panel). Projected coordinate (z/zr)proj equals 0 for the jet origin and 1 for the reconfinement point.
