Performance of the polarization leakage correction in the PILOT data
J-Ph. Bernard, A. Bernard, H. Roussel +33
The Polarized Instrument for Long-wavelength Observation of the Tenuous interstellar medium (PILOT) is a balloon-borne experiment that aims to measure the polarized emission of the…
A systematic study of radiative torque grain alignment in the diffuse interstellar medium
Stefan Reissl, Vincent Guillet, Robert Brauer +3
Context. Planck observations demonstrated that the grain alignment efficiency is almost constant in the diffuse ISM. Aims. We test if the Radiative Torque (RAT) theory is compatibl…
Polarization measurements analysis II. Best estimators of polarization fraction and angle
L. Montier, S. Plaszczynski, F. Levrier +5
With the forthcoming release of high precision polarization measurements, such as from the Planck satellite, it becomes critical to evaluate the performance of estimators for the p…
