  • Abstract
    The accuracy with which the linear polarization sensitivity of gamma-ray Compton polarimeters can be calculated is investigated by the Monte Carlo method. The data from several operating polarimeter configurations are compared with the simulations. The calculated merits of these configurations are also compared.
