Caption: Figure 14.

A quasi-polar fireball that attains higher altitudes. This viewing angle produces longer multibranch IR and larger QU loops than the case in Figure 9. The larger variation of emission heights also results in a more spectrally extended burst with significant energy-dependent polarization variation.
