Stellar and solar X-ray polarimetryThe scientific motivation for X-ray polarimetry is discussed with particular emphasis on the information that might be obtained on binary X-ray pulsars and a number of other classes of objects, including solar flares. Detailed discussions are given for Thomson-scattering and Bragg-crystal polarimeters with numerical estimates for the sensitivity of various existing and proposed instruments.
