Design for coordinated measurements of Faraday rotation and line-of-sight electron density using heterodyne techniques
This report proposes a device which can overcome certain of the compromises of conventional Faraday rotation methods and at the same time measure the optical phase as well as the polarization. This would be useful for unfolding the Faraday rotation signal using the line-of-sight density along exactly the same path. Preliminary design parameters using a CO/sub 2/ laser are presented.
