Domain-specific

• Chandrasekhar Polarization
  • An eclipse, rotational oblateness and gravity darkening, or another nonuniform projected weighting prevents complete cancellation and can yield a net Stokes signal.

    This sourceThe primary observational and modeling paper verifies spherical-disk cancellation, rotational symmetry breaking, the wavelength sign reversal, and the Regulus application.
