Polarized Microwave Emission from Dust

Abstract

Polarized emission from dust is an important foreground that can hinder the progress in polarized CMB studies unless carefully accounted for. We discuss potential difficulties associated with the dust foreground, namely, the existence of different grain populations with very different emission/polarization properties and variations of the polarization yield with grain temperature. In this context we appeal for systematic studies of polarized dust emission as the means of dealing with this foreground.
