The results of a study of the polarization of photons elastically scattered by mercury atoms are reported. A matrix is derived for finding the polarization from that of the incident photon beam. Curves of the degree of polarization vs scattering angle are given for photon energies of polarization: (1) linear polarization for unpolarized incident beam, (2) circular polarization for linearly polarized incident beam, and (3) linear polarization taxing Rayleigh and Thomson scattering into account.
