Scientific paper

The rotation measure of the rapid variable source BL Lac has been determined by simultaneous polarization measurements at two sets of four closely spaced wavelengths. The derived value of -198±4 rad m-2 is consistent with data over at least the last decade, while the source has had a variety of intrinsic position angles. The rotation measure is also similar to those of other extragalactic sources and pulsars near its position lII = 90°; bII = -10°.
