Polarimetry

Focus offsets for all optical elements used with polarimetry have now been measured and entered in the data-base. Tests with focus and target acquisition scripts have been made to verify the performance with FAPOL. The ALFOSC observing Cookbook has been updated for FAPOL imaging and a new section was added on FAPOL spectro-polarimetry. This document is now the main reference for the observer also for the polarimetric modes.
