NIRC2-Pol: First Light of Near-Infrared Polarimetry on Keck II

Briley L. Lewis, Manxuan Zhang, Maxwell A. Millar-Blanchaer +21

NIRC2, the Near Infrared Camera 2 on the Keck II telescope, was recently upgraded with a new suite of polarimetric observing modes. The new polarimetry modes (referred to as NIRC2-…

Enabling Quantitative Polarimetry for Keck/NIRC2: Preliminary Mueller Matrix Model Calibration

Manxuan Zhang, Briley L. Lewis, Maxwell A. Millar-Blanchaer +27

The Keck/NIRC2 infrared imager was upgraded in 2025 with dual-beam polarimetric observing modes spanning approximately 1.1--4.1 microns (JHKL' bands). We present a preliminary JHK…
