A comparative polarimetric study of the 43 GHz and 86 GHz SiO masers toward the supergiant star VY CMa

The aim of this thesis is to perform observational tests of SiO maser polarisation and excitation models, using component-level comparisons of multiple SiO maser transitions in the 43 GHz and 86 GHz bands at milliarcsecond resolution. These observations reqwre very long baseline interferometric imag...
