Variable Star Polarimetry with PICSARR-2

Daniel V. Cotton, Jeremy Bailey, Logan Barrett +3

We describe the upgraded Polarimeter using Imaging CMOS Sensor and Rotating Retarder 2 (PICSARR-2), describe its applications, and characterize its performance for stellar polarime…

Size, shape, density, and atmospheric limit of (50000) Quaoar revealed from 14 years of stellar occultation

Giuliano Margoti, Felipe Braga-Ribas, José Luis Ortiz +173

We present results from 28 stellar occultations by the large Trans-Neptunian Object (50000) Quaoar registered between 2018 and 2025. By performing a joint analysis of this occultat…

One Hundred Years of Venus Polarimetry: PICSARR Observations of the Phase Curves

Jeremy Bailey, Daniel V. Cotton, Kimberly Bott +1

We report new high-precision observations of the polarization of light scattered from the atmosphere of Venus, made 100 years after the pioneering studies by Bernard Lyot. The new…

Deneb is a Large Amplitude Polarimetric Variable

Daniel V. Cotton, Jeremy Bailey, Jean Perkins +2

We write to report the discovery that Deneb is a large amplitude polarization variable. Over a ~400 d time span from August 2022 Deneb's polarization was typically around 3900 part…
