Scientific paper

Previous results on the gas and dust distribution in the local interstellar medium are discussed, with special attention given to the search for possible dust concentrations in regions of the sky containing high velocity gas components. High-resolution maps of the 4 Lac region reveal an emission feature which contains much structure, extends from the galactic plane, and is inclined at an angle of about 45 deg to the plane. An IR emission known as galactic cirrus, noted at high galactic latitudes, is suggested by Low et al. (1984) to be due to the presence of dust.
