The panel of two figures illustrate the synthetic gas column density and linear polarization component q along the line of sight, inclined 15 degrees from the midplane, for a very early disk forming from collapsing magnetic flow with the Perspective code developed by the CHARMS project. The early disk in the model shows a spiral-like shape, presumably created by the magnetic field aligned along the rotational plane of the original cloud, that is streaming into the central source.
