...(Hamaker et al. 1996) as[*]
All expressions in this paper are in the signal-domain polarization frame (the linear or circular polarization bases). Conversion to and from the Stokes frame can be done by the application of an appropriate co-ordinate transform operator (Hamaker et al. 1996). Note that only the minor cycle of the deconvolution iterations operate in the Stokes frame (see Sect. 4).

... unitary[*]
It can be shown that if ${\ensuremath{\mathsf{J^{Sky}_{\it i}}} }$is unitary, then so is ${\ensuremath{\mathsf{J^{Sky^\dag }_{\it i}}} }\otimes{\ensuremath{\mathsf{J^{Sky}_{\it i}}} }$.
