摘要
Polarimetry is expected to play a major role as a diagnostic tool for GRBs. Techniques and methods for X/Gamma ray polarimetry are reviewed including the specific problems related to the transient nature of the sources. Optical data do not encourage optimistic predictions on polarimetry of afterglows. I review some of the existing and proposed experiments for the prompt and discuss the existing results.
