Scope and Contents

Contents

Astrophysical polarization measurements in the soft gamma-ray band are becoming more feasible as detectors with high position and energy resolution are deployed. Previous work has shown that the minimum detectable polarization (MDP) of an ideal Compton polarimeter can be improved by \(\sim 21\%\) when an unbinned, maximum likelihood method is used...
