Scientific paper

Optical polarization data are presented for nebulosities associated with dark clouds and regions of star formation. Illuminating sources are identified, and it is found that these usually show evidence of polarization induced by aligned grains, which the authors believe indicates the presence of magnetic fields in the gas-dust tori that surround the central objects.
