Interstellar polarization in the ultravioletUltraviolet interstellar polarization measurements in the direction of Zed Ophiuchi by rocket-borne scanning spectrophotometer are reported. The spectrophotometer was calibrated by a beam of polarized light. Plotted percent polarization against inverse wavelength in microns shows that polarization is running around 1.5 percent for this star, which is consistent with the visual observation.
