Simultaneous optical polarimetry and X-ray observations
CP Tuc (AX J2315–592) shows a dip in X-rays which lasts for approximately half the binary orbit and is deeper in soft X-rays compared with hard X-rays. It has been proposed that this dip is due to the accretion stream obscuring the accretion region from view. If CP Tuc was a polar, as has been suggested, then the length of such a dip would make it unique amongst polars since in those polars in ...
متن کاملThe Crab optical and ultraviolet polarimetry
Polarisation measurements of pulsars and of their pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) are uniquely able to provide deep insights into the highly magnetised relativistic environment of young, rotationpowered isolated neutron stars (INSs). Besides the radio band, optical observations are primarily suited to providing such insights. The first INS for which optical polarisation observations were performed i...
متن کاملPolarimetry Techniques at Optical and Infrared Wavelengths
The techniques and components used to measure both linear and circular polarization at wavelengths from 0.3 μm to 20 μm are reviewed. Some emphasis is given to the implementation of polarimetry on the latest generation of large-aperture telescopes and some of the difficulties being encountered are addressed.
متن کاملCo-Array Fortran Experiences with Finite Differencing Methods∗
Partial differential equations are used to describe physical phenomena in many science and engineering fields. Finite differencing methods map these continuous equations into discrete space so that they may be solved on computers. Co-Array Fortran provides the means for implementing such solution methods in parallel processing computing environments. In this report we describe our experiences w...
