Interstellar Medium Polarization

Interstellar Medium Polarization is a physical phenomenon in astrophysics whereby electromagnetic radiation, particularly in the infrared spectrum, undergoes polarization due to the preferential scattering and absorption of photons by aligned non-spherical dust grains within the magnetized interstellar medium.
