摘要：
A polarized maser that operates in an anisotropic medium with natural modes polarized differently to the maser, was analyzed. It was observed that when the spatial growth rate and the generalized Farady rotation rate were comparable, the polarization of the growing radiation was different from those of the maser and medium. It was observed that for a linearly polarized maser operating in a medium with linearly polarized natural modes, the growing radiation was partially circularly polarized. This shows an unrecognized source of circular polarization that might be relevant to pulsar radio emission.
