A comprehensive PDI pipeline for NACO data (PIPPIN)

PIPPIN (PDI pipeline for NACO data) is a pipeline capable of reducing the polarimetric observations made by the VLT/NACO instrument. It applies the Polarimetric Differential Imaging (PDI) technique to separate the polarised, scattered light from the (largely) un-polarised, stellar light. As a result, circumstellar dust can be uncovered.

A comprehensive archive of the PIPPIN-reduced NACO data products can be found at archive. There, we have published our reductions of potential young systems observed with NACO’s polarimetric configuration paper-citation.

If you use PIPPIN or PIPPIN-reduced data products from the archive for your publication, please cite our paper.
