Boundary Effects and the Circular Polarization of Synchrotron Sources
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 April 2016
Extract
Some self-absorbed synchrotron sources have, a small but observable degree of circular polarization rc near the absorption turnover (Roberts et al. 1975). The simplest interpretation of the circular component is in terms of the intrinsic degree of circular polarization of synchrotron radiation (Legg and Westfold 1968); this provides a relation (Roberts et al. 1975)
