A recent change in the optical and gamma ray polarization of the Crab nebula and pulsar
Moran, Paul; Kyne, Gillian; Redfern, R. M.; Shearer, Andrew (Oxford journals, 2015-12-31)We report on observations of the polarization of optical and γ-ray photons from the Crab nebula and pulsar system using the Galway Astronomical Stokes Polarimeter (GASP), the Hubble Space Telescope, Advanced Camera for ... -
VLT polarimetry observations of the middle-aged pulsar PSR B0656+14
Moran, Paul; Shearer, Andrew (EDP Sciences, 2015-11-02)Context. Optical polarisation measurements are key tests for different models of the pulsar magnetosphere. Furthermore, comparing the relative orientation of the phase-averaged linear polarisation direction and the pulsar ...
