The magnetic field in the shell is curved and parallel to the ring-like shell, and its strength is estimated to be $\\sim120\\,\\mu$G in the plane of the sky. The magnetic field strength in the shell is significantly enhanced compared to the local field strength. We calculate the mass-to-flux ratio for the submillimeter clumps in the shell and find that they are all magnetically subcritical.
