We present a model for the emission of radiation by elongated polarized dust grains under the influence of both an external electromagnetic wave and a constant background magnetic field. The dust, exhibiting rotational motion at the external electromagnetic field frequency wo as well as quivering motion at frequency 1-2o, proportional to the em field amplitude, will radiate with frequencies that will depend on the external field wavelength and amplitude. Two different types of radiated spectra can be observed, one, pertatining to small field amplitudes, with frequencies wo, and sidebands wo f flo and wo f 2120 and the other, corresponding to large field amplitudes, exhibiting frequencies at wo, and also at the quivering frequency S-2o flo t wo and at twice the quivering frequency 21Zo 212o f w. Since the amplitude and the frequency of the background electromagnetic field are independent parameters, this model establishes a correlation between different spectral components of galactic dipolar emission, which may explain the correlation between a component of the Galactic microwave emission and the 100μm thermal emission from interstellar dust that has been recently measured.
