**Table 4:** Parameters for planets at opposition (phase angle $\alpha =0^\circ$ ) with finite Rayleigh scattering layer (optical thickness $b_\tau$ ) and ground albedo $A_{\rm ground}$ . The tabulated values are the geometric albedo $A_{\rm g}$ , the disk-integrated radial polarization $\langle Q_{\rm r}/I\rangle$ , the line-integrated radial polarization for a line through the disk center, and the maximum radial polarization $Q_{\rm r}(r)/I(r)\vert _{\rm max}$ .
