Scientific paper

A polarimeter for use from 1 μm - 5 μm on the IRTF is described.
The instrument employs both cold and warm optical components and uses
both fixed and rotating optical components. Instrumental polarization is
less than 0.05% and faint magnitude limits open up a wide range of
objects that can be observed for polarization.
