Abstract:
We present simultaneous UBV linear polarization measurements for 361
A- and F-type stars with accurate colour excess and distance
determination. These stars are distributed in 35 Kapteyn's Selected
Areas, covering the third and fourth quadrants of the galactic plane
(|b|≤30°). The obtained polarization and the known colour excess
are compared. An analysis of the polarization distribution as a
function of the stellar distance is also performed.
