A TECHNIQUE FOR SIMULTANEOUS MEASUREMENT OF CIRCULAR AND LINEAR POLARIZATION WITH A SINGLE-CHANNEL POLARIMETER
Journal Title: Odessa Astronomical Publications - Year 2016, Vol 29, Issue
Abstract
We present a technique for simultaneous measurement of circular and linear polarization with the single-channel polarimeter, that is used in Crimean astrophysical observatory for many years. Methods and a computer program for data reduction is described. The algorithm is described, which have been used for photo-polarimetric monitoring of various astronomical objects cataclysmic variables, asteroids, comets.

ADDITIONAL SUPPORT FOR RELATIVE WAVELENGTH INDEPENDENCE OF IR LAGS IN NGC 4151 OVER THE PAST DECADE
We present results of a study of the correlation between the infrared (JHKL) and optical (B) fluxes of the nucleus of the Seyfert galaxy NGC 4151 for the years 2010–2015 using our own data (partially published) in combina...
QUASI-ANALYTICAL METHOD FOR IMAGES CONSTRUCTION FROM GRAVITATIONAL LENSES
One of the main problems in the study of system of equations of the gravitational lens, is the computation of coordinates from the known position of the source. In the process of computing finds the solution of equations...
UNIVERSALITY IN MAGNETOEMISSION OF COMPACT ASTROPHYSICAL OBJECTS
Magnetodynamics of inhomogeneous crusty nuclear matter is considered accounting for quantum fluctuations and ferromagnetic coupling. We show that anomalies in nuclide magnetic moments give rise to erratic jumps in magnet...
