This study investigates the polarization characteristics of young stellar objects (YSOs), particularly focusing on single and multiple scattering mechanisms in protoplanetary disks and envelopes. Key observations include parameters from V1352 Aql and DG Tau, detailing their polarization angle and binary system dynamics. Additionally, we analyze the polarization in various supernovae, discussing the electron-scattering atmosphere and its implications for asymmetries in supernova collapses. This research emphasizes the importance of polarimetric techniques in understanding astrophysical phenomena.
