Abstract -- The strengths of magnetic fields in interstellar gas clouds are obtained through observations of the circular polarization of spectral line radiation. ... To infer information about these irregularities from the observational data, we develop statistical relationships between the rms values of the irregular component of the magnetic field and spatial variations in the circular polarization of the spectral line radiation. ...

... Equivalent widths of Ca I absorption lines at 6122?, 6162?, and 6494? and Fe I at 6103?, 6200?, and 6574? were measured for several spectral standards. ... The spectral types of the target stars were determined by comparing source line ratios to those of standard stars. ... The uncertainty in the spectral type is about one and a half sub--types. ... Northwest of the belt, again all but one source shows Li in absorption, but only one star (out of 13 = 7.7%) shows an H emission line. ...

In accreting binary neutron star systems matter is channelled by the strong magnetic field to the poles of the neutron star. The accreted matter accumulates at the poles to form accretion mounds. Pressure from the confined matter can significantly distort the local magnetic field structure, affecting the X-ray observations and long term evolution of the magnetic field. ...
