Scientific paper

The concept of information capacity is used to compare the performance of different designs of astronomical polarimeter, as an aid in selecting the design which is most suited to a particular application. The example chosen to illustrate the method is the comparison of visible-region stellar polarimeters, but the method is of general applicability and the constraints applying to infrared polarimeters are also discussed.
