Investigations of low levels of stellar polarimetric variability

The aim of this thesis is the investigation of stars which show very low levels of polarimetric variability. A sample of such stars has been observed and assessed statistically to determine small differences, and temporal changes in polarisation. A statistical test has been improved upon, and used i...
