This plot

For unpolarized standard stars the pipeline determines the measured value. Since polarization parameters are usually tabulated for broad-band filters the pipeline selects the broad-band filter closest to the central wavelength of the grism.
Values significantly different from zero might indicate instrumental polarization. Since the error of the polarization plays an important role here we plot it in the lower panel.
Only data with an error below 0.5 in instrumental polarization are trended.

The corresponding instruments polarization normalized with its error used to be monitored. However, since 2024-04 we have been monitoring the actual value of the polarization.
 


General information

Click on any of the plots to see a close-up version.

The latest date is indicated on top of the plot.

If configured,

  • data points belonging to the latest date are specially marked
  • statistical averages are indicated by a solid line, and thresholds by broken lines
  • outliers are marked by a red asterisk. They are defined as data points outside the threshold lines
  • "aliens" (= data points outside the plot Y limits) are marked by a red arrow ( or )
  • you can download the data for each parameter set if the 'Data downloads' link shows up
