The determination of the detector parameters is based on sets of images of a spatially uniform-illumination scene (flatfield frames) and without any illumination (dark frames), putting a plug in place of the filter, taken at a series of exposure times. ... We interleave before and after each exposure time in the series of flatfield frames a set of reference images at an exposure time of 1 sec to determine the possible temporal variation of the illumination level. ...

... Based on the measurements of the Stokes parameters in the continuum and in the broad 0.6563 nm hydrogen emission line obtained with the 6-m telescope for the Seyfert galaxy Mkn 6, secular variability of the hydrogen line profile polarization was discovered; a time lag of less than 2 days between the continuum flux and the polarized continuum emission was determined which corresponds to the size of the region where the polarization of the continuum occurs, less than 0.001 pc. ...
