A polarimetry study of starburst galaxies
Optical imaging polarimetry has been carried out for a number of starburst galaxies under various morphological classifications. In several cases, kpc-scale reflection nebulae are detected which arise from dust grains scattering starburst radiation towards the observer. In general, the scattering me...
