Scientific paper

An optical polarization map of the HH83 nebulosity on the periphery of the L1641 dark cloud in Orion shows that it is predominantly a reflection nebula illuminated by a nearby IR source (HH83IRS/IRAS 05311 - 0631) with no optical counterpart. The stellar jet is unpolarized as expected for an emission-line feature. The nebula has many morphological similarities to other pre-main-sequence nebulae such as Haro 6-5, L1551/IRS5, HH34 and Re50.
