This lecture covers the Radio Interferometry Measurement Equation (RIME) part 1, focusing on the mathematical foundations of radio polarimetry. The instructor explains the concepts of Stokes parameters, Wolf coherency matrix, Jones and Mueller calculi, and their application in radio interferometry. The lecture also discusses the calibration of radio interferometer systems and the translation of the IAU radio definition of the Stokes parameters into mathematical form.
