Description


We have measured the interstellar polarization for 2400 stars at the distances of up to 600pc and within 60 degrees and 30 degrees from the north and south Galactic poles. These data were used to make interstellar polarization maps of the regions around the north (b>30) and south (b<-60) poles. The new maps give wider and higher resolution views of interstellar polarization at high galactic latitudes and show significant asymmetries in the polarization, one in the northern sky directly across the local spiral and the second between the northern and southern Galactic hemispheres.
