<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title> <jats:p>We present the first radio polarimetric observations of a fast-rising blue optical transient, AT2018cow. Two epochs of polarimetry with additional coincident photometry were performed with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array. The overall photometric results based on simultaneous observations in the 100 and 230 GHz bands are consistent with the nonthermal radiation model reported by Ho et al. and indicate that the spectral peaks (∼110 GHz at the first epoch and ∼67 GHz at the second epoch) represent the synchrotron self-absorption frequency. The non-detection of linear polarization with &lt;0.15% in the 230 GHz band at the phase when the effect of synchrotron self-absorption was quite small in the band may be explained by internal Faraday depolarization with high circumburst density and strong magnetic field. This result supports the stellar explosion scenario rather than the tidal disruption model. The maximum energy of accelerating particles at the shocks of AT2018cow-like objects is also discussed.</jats:p>

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title> <jats:p>Mid-infrared spectroscopic observations of oxygen-rich asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars show the common presence of dust species that have a broad feature at ∼11–12 <jats:italic>μ</jats:italic>m. Chemically synthesized amorphous alumina (Al<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>O<jats:sub>3</jats:sub>) is widely accepted as the source of this emission, although it is not obvious that amorphous alumina can condense in circumstellar conditions. We performed condensation experiments of Al–Si–Mg–O and Mg–Al–O gases using induction thermal plasma systems, in which small particles condense from vapors with a steep temperature gradient. The condensates were analyzed using X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and observed with a transmission electron microscope. The condensed nanoparticles from the Al and O gases were transition aluminas based on face-centered cubic (fcc) packed oxygen (<jats:italic>δ</jats:italic>- and <jats:italic>λ</jats:italic>-alumina, and an unknown phase). The fcc oxygen frameworks were maintained in the condensed alumina containing small amounts of Mg and Si. Condensates from the gases of Al:Mg = 99:1 and 95:5 had <jats:italic>δ</jats:italic>- and <jats:italic>γ</jats:italic>-alumina structures. Particles with <jats:italic>λ</jats:italic>- and <jats:italic>γ</jats:italic>-alumina structures formed from starting materials of Al:Si = 9:1 and Al:Si:Mg = 8:1:1, respectively. Amorphous silica-rich particles condensed from gases of Al/(Si+Al) &lt; 0.75. The condensed transition alumina containing ∼10% Si showed similar spectral shapes to the observed dust emission from the alumina-rich AGB star T Cep. Based on the present results, it is reasonable that the source of 11–12 <jats:italic>μ</jats:italic>m broad emission of alumina-rich stars is not amorphous alumina, but is transition alumina containing ∼10% Si.</jats:p>
