Scintillation-Induced Circular Polarization in Pulsars and Quasars
J. -P. Macquart, D. B. Melrose
We present a physical interpretation for the generation of circular polarization resulting from the propagation of radiation through a magnetized plasma in terms of a rotation meas…
Circular Polarization Induced by Scintillation in a Magnetized Medium
J. -P. Macquart, D. B. Melrose
A new theory is presented for the development of circular polarization as radio waves propagate through the turbulent, birefringent interstellar medium. The fourth order moments of…
Strong, Variable Circular Polarization in PKS 1519-273
J. -P. Macquart, L. Kedziora-Chudczer, D. P. Rayner +1
We report strong variability in the circular and linear polarization of the intraday variable source PKS 1519-273. The circular polarization varies on a timescale of hours to days…
Nanoarcsecond single-dish imaging of the Vela pulsar
J. -P. Macquart, S. Johnston, M. Walker +1
We have measured the properties of the diffractive scintillation toward the Vela pulsar under the extremely strong scattering conditions encountered at 660 MHz. We obtain a decorre…
