Catalog Service: Linear and circular polarisation spectra of 2 stars
Description
The identification of the carriers of diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) remains one of the long-standing mysteries in astronomy. The detection of a polarisation signal in a DIB profile can be used to distinguish between a dust or gas-phase carrier. The polarisation profile can give additional information on the grain or molecular properties of the absorber. The aim is to measure the polarisation efficiency of the carriers of the diffuse interstellar bands.
