The Galway astronomical Stokes polarimeter: an all-Stokes optical polarimeter with ultra-high time resolution
Collins, Patrick; Kyne, Gillian; Lara, David; Redfern, Michael; Shearer, Andrew; Sheehan, Brendan (Springer Verlag, 2013-06-28)Many astronomical objects emit polarised light, which can give information both about their source mechanisms, and about (scattering) geometry in their source regions. To date (mostly) only the linearly polarised components ... -
An investigation of the Eigenvalue Calibration Method (ECM) using GASP for non-imaging and imaging detectors
Kyne, Gillian; Lara, David; Hallinan, Gregg; Redfern, Michael; Shearer, Andrew (Springer Verlag, 2016-02)Polarised light from astronomical targets can yield a wealth of information about their source radiation mechanisms, and about the geometry of the scattered light regions. Optical observations, of both the linear and ...
