Left: scattered light phase curves of the albedo spectra Aλ(α) (Eq. (31)) of our HD 189733b simulation between 0.3 μm (colour bar: dark purple) to 5.0 μm (colour bar: dark red). Optical and near-IR wavelength packets are more strongly scattered than longer IR wavelengths. Right: classical phase function (Eq. (33)), which emphasises the phase curve shapes. Optical wavelengths are more symmetric about the sub-stellar point, IR wavelengths show more variation with phase. A Lambertian phase function (black, dashed line) is over-plotted for reference, which is useful for characterising scattering behaviour (see text).
