摘要：

We have used existing data, compiled by other investigators, to obtain the icremental polarization of starlight produced at different distances from the Sun and at different galactic latitudes and longitudes. Our results are shown as a series of plots. We find that, within spiral arms, the orientation of the incremental polarization vector is correlated with the direction of the arms. © 1974 Royal Astronomical Society.
