The Optical Extinction Law Depends on Magnetic Field Orientation: The RV–ψ Relation
For aspherical interstellar dust grains aligned with their short axes preferentially parallel to the local magnetic field, the amount of extinction per grain is larger when the magnetic field is along the line of sight and smaller when in the plane of the sky. To the extent that optical extinction a...
