A recent change in the optical and γ-ray polarization of the Crab nebula and pulsar
Paul Moran, Gillian Kyne, Christian Gouiffes +5
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 Hubbl…
An investigation of the Eigenvalue Calibration Method (ECM) using GASP for non-imaging and imaging detectors
Gillian Kyne, David Lara, Gregg Hallinan +2
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…
Circular polarisation of synchrotron radiation in high magnetic fields
Diarmaid de Búrca, Andrew Shearer
The general model for incoherent synchrotron radiation has long been known, with the first theory being published by Westfold in and continued by Westfold and Legg in …
The study of neutron star magnetospheres with LOFT
R. P. Mignani, F. Bocchino, N. Bucciantini +24
This is a White Paper in support of the mission concept of the Large Observatory for X-ray Timing (LOFT), proposed as a medium-sized ESA mission. We discuss the potential of LOFT f…
