Scientific paper

We present new temporal relationships between polarization degree and burst intensity profiles for one example of a complex event observed with high sensitivity and time resolution. The polarization degree shows basically two distinct components: a quasi-steady one, defined as soon as the burst intensity becomes measurable, and another one with fast variations and small amplitude, superimposed on the former one. The fast time variations of the polarization degree might be related to corresponding fluctuations in intensity, at time scales which can be shorter than one second. The event also shows a rapid reversal of the sense of polarization. The example illustrates the importance of degree of polarization measurements with high sensitivity and time resolution; some possible causes that can produce the observed effects are discussed.
