Abstract
New high-spatial-resolution polarization images of the BN-KL region of OMC-1 from 1.25-3.6 μm are presented. At the longer wavelengths these show a centro-symmetric polarization vector pattern, centred mainly on IRc2, and high degrees of polarization across the nebula, confirming that the diffuse nebulosity is dominated by the scattering of radiation, mainly from IRc2. Degrees of polarization, position angles, and magnitudes are given for the observable IRc sources; these are discussed.
