Alignment of quasar polarizations with large-scale structures
Damien Hutsemékers, Lorraine Braibant, Vincent Pelgrims +1
We have measured the optical linear polarization of quasars belonging to Gpc-scale quasar groups at redshift z ~ 1.3. Out of 93 quasars observed, 19 are significantly polarized. We…

A new analysis of quasar polarisation alignments
Vincent Pelgrims, Jean-Rene Cudell
We propose a new method to analyse the alignment of optical polarisation vectors from quasars. This method leads to a definition of intrinsic preferred axes and to a determination…
