Polarization properties of interstellar OH and H2O masers are related to the nonlinear properties of the medium, including that of the weak magnetoplasma. Because the Raman-type cross-saturation of oppositely polarized modes is negligible for this Gaussian-type broad-band signal, contrary to laboratory cases, the preference for circular polarization in the brightest OH sources is attributed to another mechanism: parametric down-conversion of one Zeeman-split microwave mode to another and to an electron cyclotron wave.
