Why polarimetry? Reflected light from planets is polarized
Jupiter in blue light p > 40 % at polesp ~ 5-10 % at equatorp ~ 19 % integrated
Jupiter in red light p > 40% at polesp < 5% at equatorp ~ 11% integrated
at the poles:- haze scattering
at equator:- cloud reflection- thin layer of Rayleigh scattering

PSF basic problem:
planet much fainter thanresidual PSF halo!
differential technique: (speckle rejection) reflection from planets and disks produce a polarization signal on top of the unpolarized PSF from the central star
Why polarimetry? Differential technique for detecting planets

Polarimetry with VLT / SPHEREZIMPOL (Zurich Imaging Polarimeter)• FoV (detector): 3.5 x 3.5 arcsec; resolution of 15 mas at 600 nm• wavelength range 550-890 nm• filters: broad-band R,I, …; narrow band CH4, KI…; line filters, Hα, OI…. • Polarimetric sensitivity 10 -5
SPHERE • Extreme AO system (9mag star), Strehl up to 50% for 600-900 nm• coronagraphy (Lyot coronagraphs, 4QPM)• IRDIS: polarimetry in the 1 – 2.2 µm range
Goals:• polarization contrast limit 10-8 for bright stars• detect planets around nearby stars d < 5pc• characterize scattered light from circumstellar disks
your high resolution and high contrast polarimetric imager at the VLT

ZIMPOL: basic polarimetric principle (fast modulation)
Advantages: • images of two opposite polarization modes are created almost simultaneously modulation faster than seeing variations• both images are recorded with same pixel • both images are subject to almost exactly the same aberrations• integration over many modulation cycles without readout (low RON)

Polarimeter implementation SPHEREmutual constraints:• polarimeter should not affect the AO• AO should not destroy polarization
1. telescope polarization compensated with rotating λ/2-plate and M4 mirror
2. instrument polarization calibrated with pol. switch
3. Instrument polarization compensated by inclined plate

SPHERE/ZIMPOL concept• Telescope polarization corrected with HWP1 and mirror M4
• HWP2 is used – as polarization switch to separate instrument polarization and sky+telescope polarization– to orientate the selected polarization into the correct direction for the derotator
• The derotator polarization is corrected with a (co-rotating) polarization compensator
• HWPz rotates the polarization into the ZIMPOL system• ZIMPOL performs the high precision measurement

ZIMPOL/SPHERE calibration plan for (``user-friendly’’) data reduction pipeline
• Science Calibrations– Astrometric calibrations– Photometric calibrations– Telescope polarization calibrations (unpolarized standard stars)– Telescope zero point polarization angle (polarized standard stars)
• Technical Calibrations– Bias– Dark– Intensity flat (bad pixels)– Sky flat– Modulation/demodulation efficiency
• Instrument monitoring– AO+C polarization efficiency– AO+C instrument polarization– AO+C polarization crosstalk– ZIMPOL modulation crosstalk – Telescope crosstalk

Let‘s think big: ZIMPOL-SPHERE/VLT is just a test for EPOL-EPICS/E-ELT

ZIMPOL EPOL „optimum“ conceptHWP near intermediate focus
- rotates polarization from sky into the direction (p or s) of M4, M5- polarization switch (+/--) and allows a polarimetric (self)-calibration of system
HWP near Nasmyh focus - rotates sky and telescope polarization into direction of instrument plane
No M6- else variable cross talks are introduced - else switch calibration is compromised
no M6
