Description

This comprehensive guide explores astronomical polarimetry across the entire electromagnetic spectrum, from near infrared to gamma rays. Written as both an accessible primer and authoritative reference, the book examines polarisation applications across diverse astronomical objects including active galactic nuclei, compact stars, binary systems, stars across the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram, transient phenomena, the interstellar medium and solar system bodies. Beginning with historical context and polarimetric theory fundamentals, it covers essential instrumentation and observational techniques before presenting current state-of-the-art methods in the field. Motivated by forthcoming X-ray polarimeters scheduled for launch in the coming years, this volume provides astronomers and researchers with both foundational knowledge and cutting-edge insights into one of astronomy's most revealing observational techniques.

Key Features

Covers polarimetric applications across AGN, compact stars, binary systems and stars throughout the HR diagram with detailed observational examples.

Presents foundational polarimetric theory, instrumentation design and observational techniques spanning near infrared through gamma ray wavelengths.

Serves as both introductory primer and authoritative reference for professional astronomers and advanced students studying astronomical polarimetry.

Discusses transient phenomena, interstellar medium polarisation and solar system body observations using modern polarimetric methods.

Incorporates recent developments and emerging X-ray polarimeters set to launch within the next four years, ensuring contemporary relevance.
