POLAR, a compact detector for Gamma Ray Bursts photon polarization measurements

arXiv:astro-ph/0504605 · doi:10.1016/j.nima.2005.05.066

Abstract

The design and the simulated performances of a compact detector dedicated to the measurement of GRB photon polarization is presented. Such a detector would permit to answer the question ``are most of the GRB strongly polarized?'' in a mission of one year in space.
