Scientific paper

This proposal will acquire data on unpolarized and polarized standard fields through the WFPC2 polarizing optics in order to derive a calibration of the 3-CCD and 1-CCD polarization modes of WFPC2. In first mode the target is imaged on each CCD which, with the quad filter POLQ selected, corresponds to a different relative polarization angle. The second mode requires two additional observations on WF2, through two partially rotated POLQ filter positions to yield two different relative polarization angles on the same CCD WF2. Addition of the WF2 observation from the unrotated POLQ yield three relative polarization angles in the same camera (WF2).
