Description
CTA's survey of blazars will require large-scale polarimetric follow-up, both on-demand and scheduled, using moderate-sized telescopes. The CTA-Oz consortium will prototype a new polarimeter that is optimised for this work, and commission it on local telescopes, leading to a full-scale plan for polarimetric follow-up infrastructure for CTA. I will sketch the landscape for CTA-Oz' polarimetry programme over the timescale of our new LIEF funding and beyond.
