Goals of the run : NIKA2 polarization run preparation notes

The document below in attached aims at giving the guidelines for the next commissioning phase of NIKA2 concerning the polarization channel. It is based on the experience we gained with NIKA and lists technical tests to be done and observational sources, which will be of interest for both the instrumental polarization characterization and the calibration of angle and degree of polarization.
