Abstract

The distribution of rotation measures for 86 sources suggests a two-component model for the magnetic field: a disk component directed towardl= 95°, and a component in the local spiral arm, directed alongl= 70° and 250°, with opposite senses above and below the plane. The latter may be due to a looped field in a cloud surrounding the Sun; its net flux is 3·5 micro-gauss.
