entry/instrument requires polarization field #43

Closed ambarb closed 3 years ago

ambarb commented 3 years ago

soft x-ray beamlines at ALS and NSLS-ii regularly change the polarization.

The value can be plain text like "vertical", "C+" "circular left". How should we proceed with this?

NXbeam, incident polarization and final polarization.
