Numerical simulation of the polarization in late-type variable star envelopes.
Abstract
Contents: 1. Polarization and models of the envelopes. 2. Angular resolution of the polarization across a spherical shell: model; opacity effects; polarization reversal; polarization observed with a slit. 3. Polarization by a photospheric hot spot.
