The effect of airborne dust on astronomical polarization measurements
Bailey, Jeremy; Ulanowski, Z.; Lucas, P.W.; Hough, J. H.; Hirst, E.; Tamura, M. (2008-05-11)In the past, it has generally been assumed that polarization observations made with ground-based telescopes are unaffected by the passage of light through the Earth's atmosphere. Here, we report observations with a new ... -
