The use of polarimetric techniques is nowadays widespread among solar and stellar astronomers. However, notwithstanding the recommandations that have often been made about the publication of polarimetric results in the astronomical literature, we are still far from having a standard protocol on which to conform. In this paper we review the basic definitions and the physical significance of the Stokes parameters, and we propose a standardization of the measurement of polarized radiation.

  1. Optical polarization properties of the closest tidal disruption event AT 2023clx indicate origin from tidal stream shocks

    astro-ph.HE 2025-08 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Optical polarization of the nearby tidal disruption event AT 2023clx peaks near 5 percent, swings 60 to 100 degrees between days 6 and 20 after the optical peak, and resembles AT 2020mot, supporting stream-shock model...
