ON the Linear Polarization of GD 229

The linear polarization of the peculiar white-dwarf suspect GD 229 has been defined more carefullY as p = (3.2 + 0.8) percent 0 = 80 + 50, in the blue to visible, with little apparent variability. The position angle agrees roughly with the mean for the red polarization, although the latter was observed to vary. headings: polarization - white dwarf stars
