What is HiCIAO ?• Near-infrared high contrast imaging instrument with a
linear polarimetor at the 8.2m Subaru telescope.• Targets: exoplanets and proto-planetary disks
• We use linear polarization for the detection of disks• Required polarimetric accuracy: 0.1-0.3 %
– 20-30 % polarization in disks

Nasmyth polarimetor HiCIAO• HiCIAO is mounted on Nasmyth platform.
• Instrumental polarization comes from the telescope and instruments.
• Correcting with Correction Matrix, not standard star.

What is instrumental polarization ?• The amplitude and phase of incident light are
changed at mirrors (Fresnel reflection).– Rs and Rp: the reflection coefficient of perpendicular
and parallel wave to the plane of incidence.

Conceptual figure of the optical path
• Instrumental polarization in HiCIAO mainly comes from Tertiary Mirror and Image Rotator.– Rotating during tracking objects, thus, time variable.
• Other optics generate static instrumental polarization.– Corrected by flat-fielding uging non-polarized light.

Conclusion
• HiCIAO is the Nasmyth polarimetor at the Subaru telescope.
• Instrumental polarization including cross talk is corrected by Correction Matrix.
• For better correction, half-waveplate is tracked to stabilize the variable instrumental polarization
• Accuracy: a few 0.1% Thank you!
