Scientific paper

A method for electronic analog processing of polarization pictures was described, methods for constructing polarimetric maps of the moon were reviewed, and a polarimetric map of the moon at the first quarter was shown. For observing the moon on large reflecting telescopes, an automatic window shutter which produces exposures within the limits of 0.2 to 60 seconds was constructed, as well as a set of changeable cassettes that permits changing photographic plates during a comparable exposure time. Also considered were the information types made available by a polarimetric map, (e.g., regionalization of the lunar surface according to rock types. It was concluded that the elimination of additional photographic processes improved electronic analog processing, and that the electronic analog method allowed the production of measurements with spatial resolutions similar to original photograph resolutions.
