Flux and polarization spectra for different magnetospheric plasma temperatures in the full model. The parameters are as follows: Bp = 5 × 1013 G, R = 10 km, kTs = 0.6 keV, θ = 35°, ξτ = 0.8, β0 = 0.5, and a hot spot at (θsϕs) = (53°, 37°). Results are shown for kTe = 30, 100, and 200 keV, and are compared with the unscattered and single-velocity cases.
