Scientific paper

Accounts are given of EUV/FUV polarimetric instrument concepts for solar research which observe linear polarization in the spectral lines which originate in the outer solar atmosphere. The coronagraph/polarimeter instruments discussed employ all-reflective optical systems using ultrasmooth, low-scatter normal incidence mirrors and reflective polarization analyzers. The reflecting polarization analyzers operate at the Brewster angle.
