Telescope calibration using polarization calibration data |
|
| Authors: | D Elmore |
| Abstract: | This article describes the use of the telescope output Stokes vector measured during a polarization calibration to infer the properties of mirrors in the telescope itself. Polarization calibrations performed at the National Solar Observatory Dunn Solar Telescope are used to demonstrate this technique (© 2010 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim) |
