Fig. 7

Seven stars having parallax measurements by the Hipparcos satellite within a circular region of 2° diameter around Gal 110-13 are identified in the WISE 12 μm image. The polarization vectors are drawn so that the length corresponds to the degree of polarization, and the orientation corresponds to the position angle measured from the north toward the east. A 0.2% vector is drawn for reference. The broken line shows the orientation of the Galactic plane. Five of these seven stars are used to subtract the foreground interstellar polarization from the observed values.
