Description
Optical polarimetry is an identified area in which Australia can contribute to CTAO. We are planning to construct a prototype polarimeter to be installed on one or more Australian optical telescopes.
Over the last few months, we've been able to look at our test data to check for sensitivity to polarisation signals. We find that one spot is brighter than the other, and this seems to be consistent.
