The polarizer quads were also designed to map onto a four-faceted WFC configuration and, consequently, also require a partial filter rotation of -33њ to move the filter quadrant 1 (nominal polarization angle 135њ) into WFCs 2 and 3, with some vignetting of both camera fields. Several additional partial rotations have been added to allow observations with different polarization angles on the same CCD. ... Table 3.10: Polarizer Quad Filter. ... Filter Name . ...
