This plot

This plot monitors the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) generated by the halogen lamp in ZIMPOL polarimetry. Only the polarimetric direction = zero and cycle = odd signal is monitored. The following setups are covered:

  • V filter, DIT, NDIT = 4.0, 10
  • N_R filter, DIT, NDIT = 2.0, 20
  • N_I filter, DIT, NDIT = 2.0, 40
The plot contains four boxes, which shows the signal-to-noise ratio for both read modes (SlowPolarimetry and Fastpolarimetry) and for both detectors.  
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
