Astronomers using the CHIME telescope are looking at strange, one-off cosmic explosions with a new angle. This could bring us closer to solving the lingering mystery of fast radio bursts.

Polarizing film has an axis (in our diagrams we depict its direction with lines on the film), and the film allows passage of light that is oscillating parallel to the axis.

The effect of spin on the trajectories of polarized light beams has now been experimentally observed, ... Figure 1: A schematic diagram showing the trajectories of left- (in blue) ...

The Event Horizon Telescope project, which produced the world's first image of a black hole in 2019 in the M87 galaxy, unveiled a new view of its magnetic fields as captured by polarized light.
