An All-Dielectric Metasurface Polarimeter [PDF]
ACS Photonics, 2022 We demonstrate an all-dielectric meta-polarimeter with a single unit-cell design capable of direct measurement of any arbitrary polarization states, achieving a polarization-measurement fidelity of 99 ± 1%. This holds promise for ultra-compact polarization imaging and quantum state tomography.

The Growth of Interest in Astronomical X-Ray Polarimetry
Galaxies, 2018 Astronomical X-ray polarimetry was first explored in the end of the 1960s by pioneering rocket instruments. The craze arising from the first discoveries of stellar and supernova remnant X-ray polarization led to the addition of X-ray polarimeters to ...

X-Ray Spectro-polarimetry with Photoelectric Polarimeters [PDF]
, 2017 We derive a generalization of forward fitting for X-ray spectroscopy to include linear polarization of X-ray sources, appropriate for the anticipated next generation of space-based photoelectric polarimeters.

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Judge et al. recently argued that a region of the solar spectrum in the near-UV between about 250 and 290 nm is optimal for studying magnetism in the solar chromosphere, due to an abundance of Mg ii , Fe ii , and Fe i lines that sample various heights in

Intrinsic mirror noise in Fabry–Perot based polarimeters: the case for the measurement of vacuum magnetic birefringence [PDF]
The European Physical Journal C, 2018 Although experimental efforts have been active for about 30 years, a direct laboratory observation of vacuum magnetic birefringence, due to vacuum fluctuations, still needs confirmation: the predicted birefringence of vacuum is $$\Delta n = 4.0\times 10^{

Error propagation in polarimetric demodulation [PDF]
, 2008 The polarization analysis of the light is typically carried out using modulation schemes. The light of unknown polarization state is passed through a set of known modulation optics and a detector is used to measure the total intensity passing the system.
