Scientific paper

In this paper, we compare the results of a VLBI observation involving 7 European telescopes with the model by Massi et al. (1996A&AS..116..167M) for the contribution of the instrumental polarization to the closure phase. The excellent agreement found between model predictions and data proves that the systematic error present in European VLBI data is in fact due to the high instrumental polarization of some of the telescopes and can be removed by data processing.
