Galactic Science with the LiteBIRD satellite: Spectral characterization of diffuse Galactic polarized emission at the angular power spectrum level
S. Vinzl, J. Aumont, L. Vacher +108
Detection of primordial -mode polarization in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) from tensor perturbations generated during inflation is a major scientific goal of future CMB…
WALOP-South: a four camera one shot imaging polarimeter for the PASIPHAE survey. Paper III -- PSF modelling
Indrajit Paul, Kishan Deka, Tuhin Ghosh +22
The paper presents a polar shapelet‑based method for modeling the point spread function of the WALOP‑South wide‑field imaging polarimeter, achieving ~0.15% photometric accuracy for…
Evidence for cloud-to-cloud variations in the ratio of polarized thermal dust emission to starlight polarization
Nidhi Mehandiratta, Georgia V. Panopoulou, Eirik Gjerløw +12
The correlation between optical starlight polarization and polarized thermal dust emission can be used to infer intrinsic dust properties. This correlation is quantified by the rat…
TRIShUL: Technique for Reconstructing magnetic Interstellar Structure Using starLight polarization
Namita Uppal, Konstantinos Tassis, Vasiliki Pavlidou +2
We present a novel technique to decompose line-of-sight (LOS) stellar polarization as a function of distance, aimed at reconstructing three dimensional (3D) plane-of-sky (POS) magn…
Wide Area Linear Optical Polarimeter Control Software
John A. Kypriotakis, Bhushan Joshi, Dmitry Blinov +19
The WALOPControl software is designed to facilitate comprehensive control and operation of the WALOP (Wide Area Linear Optical Polarimeter) polarimeters, ensuring safe and concurre…
Zero-polarization candidate regions for calibration of wide-field optical polarimeters
N. Mandarakas, G. V. Panopoulou, V. Pelgrims +14
Context. Calibration of optical polarimeters relies on the use of stars with negligible polarization (unpolarized standard stars) for determining the instrumental polarization zero…
