Journal ArticleDOI
An investigation of grain properties in the Rho Ophiuchi dark cloud
TL;DR: In this article, a comprehensive study of dust grains in the p Ophiuchi dark cloud is presented, combining new polarimetric, optical photometric, and spectral classification data for 134 stars.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optical polarization of a complete sample of radio sources
TL;DR: In this paper, the radio and optical properties of a complete 5 GHz sample of strong radio sources are studied, and the detection rate of radio galaxies containing optical cores with high polarization is consistent with the hypothesis that all radio sources contain optically polarized cores, with strength proportional to the core radio flux density.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polarization Variability among Wolf-Rayet Stars. I. Linear Polarization of a Complete Sample of Southern Galactic WC Stars
Journal ArticleDOI
Observations of grain and magnetic field properties of the R Coronae Australis dark cloud.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented the first comprehensive polarimetric study of grains and magnetic field in a massive dark could, R Coronae Australis, by combining photometric and spectroscopic data with multicolar polarimetry for a large number of background stars which do not have circumstaller shells.
