Scientific paper

Interstellar polarization data have been used to derive the spatial distribution of the interstellar dust within the galactic plane. The observed distribution shows a strongly irregular and cloudy structure. The correlation between the observed dust distribution and the spiral arm indicators (young open star clusters and R-associations) is found to be relatively poor.
