Table 1

Parameter space explored in the grid of model polarization maps.

Parameter Priora Definition
βB Spectral index of the three-dimensional turbulent magnetic field
βn Spectral index of the three-dimensional dust density field
log10yn Log of the RMS-to-mean ratio of dust density
Log of the ratio of the turbulent magnetic field RMS to the mean magnetic field in the POS
χ0 Position angle of the mean magnetic field in the POS
b Depth of the simulated cube
c Mean dust density
Td Dust temperature
p0 Intrinsic polarisation fraction parameter

Notes. (a) Priors are assumedto be flat in the given range for the parametrization given in this table, and zero outside, except χ0, for which a 180° periodicity is applied when the Metropolis algorithm draws values outside the given range. (b) Corresponding to a cube depth in the interval . (c) Corresponding to a density in the interval .
