The Method of Searching for Rotations of the Polarization Position Angle of Quasars
Observations of quasars show that the polarization position angle of the
emission coming from them varies greatly over time, including periods called
rotations during which the angle changes in an orderly manner. The study
proposes a method for identifying such events and assessing their statistical
significance. The operation of the method is demonstrated using the example of
long-term polarimetric observations of the blazars CTA 102, 3C 454.3, and OT
081. During the analysis of light curves, 51 rotations of the polarization
position angle were found and it was shown that for CTA 102 and 3C 454.3 the
rotations are predominantly oriented in one direction.
