Interstellar polarization. VI.
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
We present new interstellar polarization measurements for 116 stars at high galactic latitudes.
Description
Our data show that Markkanen's cloud - the main polarization structure seen in the North Galactic Pole area (b>75{deg}) extends further towards lower latitudes. Especially, we have found a new dust formation in the area 35{deg}<l<45{deg}, 57{deg}<b<63{deg}.
Interstellar polarization in this part of the sky peaks at 0.7%, which gives a lower limit to the extinction A_V_>0.23mag. Polarization vectors in this cloud are very well aligned along the direction of l=50{deg}. On the IRAS 100 micron map this dust structure shows up as a bright emission area.

We discuss the new polarization map extending from circumpolar to lower latitudes and point out features which suggest that Markkanen's cloud may be a part of the dust lane in the inner edge of the local spiral or spur.
