The Galway astronomical Stokes polarimeter: an all-Stokes optical polarimeter with ultra-high time resolution
(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 ...
Circular polarization of synchrotron radiation in high magnetic fields
(Oxford University Press, 2015-04-17)
The general model for incoherent synchrotron radiation has long been known, with the first theory being published by Westfold in 1959 and continued by Westfold and Legg in 1968. When this model was first developed, it was ...
