On the mechanism of polarization origin at the polar regions of Jupiter

We have proposed a following mechanism of linear polarization origin at the Jupiter polar regions: the principal contribution in polarization is made by the light reflected by underlying surface and then scattered on aerosol haze particles. We have calculated the linear polarization distributions al...
