Interpretation of the Global Anisotropy in the Radio Polarizations of Cosmologically Distant Sources
Pankaj Jain, S. Sarala
We present a detailed statistical study of the observed anisotropy in radio polarizations from distant extragalactic objects. This anisotropy was earlier found by Birch (1982) and…

Large Scale Alignment of Optical Polarizations from Distant QSOs using Coordinate Invariant Statistics
Pankaj Jain, Gaurav Narain, S. Sarala
We introduce several coordinate invariant statistical procedures in order to test for local alignment of polarizations. A large scale alignment of optical polarizations from distan…
