A note on polarized light from Magnetars
In a recent paper it is claimed that vacuum birefringence has been experimentally observed for the first time by measuring the degree of polarization of visible light from a magnetar candidate, a neutron star with a magnetic field presumably as large as $B\sim 10^{13}~\hbox {G}$ . The role of such a...
