- Summary

Abstract

This paper outlines why mapping the magnetic field in the interstellar medium is useful, why established techniques for mapping the field (e.g. polarimetry of background starlight) fail in dense clouds, and why new techniques that exploit the polarized emission from grains should succeed.
