摘要：

In this paper we present a complete summary of the data obtained with the far-infrared polarimeter, Stokes, in flights of the Kuiper Airborne Observatory. We have observed 12 Galactic clouds and have made over 1100 individual measurements at 100 mu m and 60 mu m. The median P for all of the 60 mu m and 100 mu m measurements is 3.6% and 2.6% respectively. We also present flux maps obtained simultaneously with the polarimetry.
