Map of the angle of linear polarization of the companion GSC 6214 B, the star 1RXS J1609 A, and other nearby bright stars superimposed on an IRAS map at 100 μm. The angles of GSC 6214 B and 1RXS J1609 A are from the SPHERE-IRDIS H-band measurements from this work, whereas for the other stars the angles are taken from the catalog of optical measurements by Heiles (2000). The length of the lines is arbitrary and contrary to Fig. 8 does not indicate the degree of polarization. HD 147700 in unpolarized. White lines indicate stars at a distance between 128 pc and 142 pc, and blue and orange lines show objects closer or farther away, respectively. We note that the region shown is much larger than that ofFig. 8, and therefore the angular separation among the stars is much larger as well.
