Abstract

The $Q(M)$ depolarization scalar metric and a graphical polarimetric analysis are applied to several reported Mueller matrices. A brief review of the main polarimetric concepts and the depolarizations scalar metrics is presented. It is shown the depolarization scalar metric $Q(M)$ provides consistent results with the reported scalar metrics and offers more information about the internal nature of the Mueller matrix.
