Spectropolarimeter on a 2--4 m class telescope and proposed science cases
Archana Soam, Siddharth Maharana, B-G Andersson +1
We propose a spectropolarimeter a covering wavelength range of 3200--7000 Ã [3200Ã chosen as lower limit to go to the atmospheric cut-off. It's ``needed" for some Serkowski curves…
