Scientific paper

Some new high-speed photometric and polarimetric observations of AM Herculis are presented. These new data obtained during 1977 with the 2.5-m Isaac Newton telescope are compared to previous observations. Several properties are noted to have changed, in particular the size and structure of the periodic linear-polarization events. There is no evidence for periodic variation of the polarization apart from the 3-hr orbital period.
