The wavelength dependence of interstellar polarization in the Local Hot Bubble

Daniel V. Cotton, Jonathan P. Marshall, Priscilla C. Frisch +6

The properties of dust in the interstellar medium (ISM) nearest the Sun are poorly understood because the low column densities of dust toward nearby stars induce little photometric…

The polarization of the planet-hosting WASP-18 system

Kimberly Bott, Jeremy Bailey, Daniel V. Cotton +3

We report observations of the linear polarization of the WASP-18 system, which harbors a very massive ( approx 10 M_J) planet orbiting very close to its star with an orbital period…

The Rotationally Modulated Polarization of Boo A

Daniel V. Cotton, Dag Evensberget, Stephen C. Marsden +9

We have observed the active star Boo A (HD 131156A) with high precision broadband linear polarimetry contemporaneously with circular spectropolarimetry. We find both signals ar…

Polarized Radiative Transfer in Planetary Atmospheres and the Polarization of Exoplanets

Jeremy Bailey, Lucyna Kedziora-Chudczer, Kimberly Bott

We describe the incorporation of polarized radiative transfer into the atmospheric radiative transfer modelling code VSTAR (Versatile Software for Transfer of Atmospheric Radiation…

Polarization due to rotational distortion in the bright star Regulus

Daniel V. Cotton, Jeremy Bailey, Ian D. Howarth +4

Polarization in stars was first predicted by Chandrasekhar [1] who calculated a substantial linear polarization at the stellar limb for a pure electron-scattering atmosphere. This…
