Scientific paper

We obtained the first ever mid-IR polarimetry maps of the axi-symmetric planetary nebula NGC 7027. The observations were taken with the University of Denver's TNTCAM2 at the Wyoming Infrared Observatory's (WIRO) 2.3 m aperture telescope, providing 0.78 arcsecond resolution. Polarization maps in the mid-IR can help constrain the properties and alignment of dust grains in the circumstellar environment.
