... University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA Spinning interstellar dust grains produce detectable rotational emission in the 10-100 GHz frequency range. A partial alignment of grains arises from a newly-discovered e ect termed \resonance relaxation" and therefore the emission is polarized at a few per- cent level. I shall discuss the expected properties of the emission spectrum and the degree to which this emission is expected to interfere with the attempts to measure properties of CMB. ...
