Optical polarimetry studies of Seyfert galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Optical imaging polarimetry has been performed on seven nearby Seyfert galaxies, three with face-on and four with edge-on host galaxies of various morphological classifications.

Single shot quantitative polarized light imaging system for rapid planar biaxial testing of soft tissues

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Quantitative Polarized Light Imaging (QPLI) is an established technique used to compute the orientation of collagen fibers based on their birefringence.

An Investigation Into the Yields of 3,4‐Methylenedioxyphenyl‐2‐propanone (MDP2P) From Glycidate Pre‐Precursors

open access: yesDrug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
Hydrolysis of the glycidate pre‐precursors MMDMG and EMDMG was evaluated for MDP2P production. Acid hydrolysis of MMDMG (HCl, 100°C, 18 h) yielded the highest MDP2P recovery (79%), whereas base hydrolysis produced only slightly lower yields (73%), demonstrating both pathways are effective routes to this key MDMA precursor.

Robust polarimetry via convex optimization

open access: yes, 2020
We present mathematical methods, based on convex optimization, for correcting non-physical coherency matrices measured in polarimetry. We also develop the method for recovering the coherency matrices corresponding to the smallest and largest values of ...

The BIOMASS Level 2 Prototype Processor: Design and Experimental Results of Above-Ground Biomass Estimation

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
BIOMASS is ESA’s seventh Earth Explorer mission, scheduled for launch in 2022. The satellite will be the first P-band SAR sensor in space and will be operated in fully polarimetric interferometric and tomographic modes.

Multipoint radio probe of the solar corona: The trans-coronal radio array fleet

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022
The Trans-Coronal Radio Array Fleet (T-CRAF) is a mission concept designed to continuously probe the magnetic field and plasma density structure of the corona at heliocentric distances of ≈ 2 − 10 R⊙ (solar radius, R⊙ = 695, 700 km).

Near‐Infrared Polarimetric Imaging With Nonlinear Flat‐Optics

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A compact and broadband polarimetric imaging platform is presented, based on second‐harmonic generation (SHG) in nonlinear flat‐optics. The system employs periodic all‐dielectric AlGaAs gratings to induce polarization‐dependent SH emission, enabling pixel by pixel direct retrieval of the full Stokes vector from an input intensity distribution ...

Near-IR imaging polarimetry of dust-debris disk candidates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We have carried out JHK polarimetric observations of ten stars around which dust-debris disks may be present, by using the polarimeter module IRPOL2 with the near-IR camera UIST on UKIRT.

Generating Helical Polymorphic Beams Using Dielectric Metasurfaces

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Helix‐shaped polymorphic beams are optical fields whose intensity maxima spiral around the propagation axis, enabling particle manipulation through attractive or repulsive forces. Traditionally requiring expensive spatial light modulators, metasurfaces now provide a compact, cost‐effective alternative. This work demonstrates general helical polymorphic
