Abstract: |
We present a selection of imaging polarimetry of Uranus, Neptune and Jupiter and long-slit spectropolarimetry of Jupiter and Saturn. The images show the enhanced polarization along the limb of Uranus and Neptune and at the poles of Jupiter. The polarized spectra reveal different wavelength dependencies for different spatial regions. |
