Polarized Maser Emission with In-source Faraday Rotation
We discuss studies of polarization in astrophysical masers with particular emphasis on the case where the Zeeman splitting is small compared to the Doppler profile, resulting in a blend of the transitions between magnetic substates. A semiclassical theory of the molecular response is derived, and co...
