POLAR, an instrument to measure GRB polarization. Design and laboratory tests.

Abstract

International audienceReliable polarization measurements of photons from Gamma Ray Bursts (GRB) would make the understanding of the GRB phenomenon progress enormously. POLAR is a concept for an instrument that would enable such a measurement. We report about performances predicted by of Monte-Carlo and on laboratory tests to validate some critical aspects of the desig
