| Abstract: |
We report on the results of coronagraphic polarization imaging of
circumstellar disk around HD169142 in H-band with Subaru/HiCIAO.
Scattered light was
detected in the regions of 29–160 AU in radius.
The azimuthally-averaged radial distribution of polarization intensity (PI)
is well described by power-law form of propto r–3 in the regions r < 52AU and r > 81AU.
The normalized PI in the outer power-law region is higher than that in the inner power-law region
by a factor of 4.5.
The r–3-dependence of PI can be reproduced by disk structure with the surface density
Σ(r) ∝ r–1 and the scale height H(r) ∝ r+1. The difference in
normalized PI between the two regions can be explained
when dust growth is taking place in the inner part of the disk. |
