Fig. A.2

Examples of line formation following Bertout & Magnan (1987). Left: a basic Schwarzschild mechanism produces a flat bottom profile captured by setting a = 1. Right: two accelerating spherical shells with acceleration a = 1.2: one expanding and the second falling, producing the line doubling. The red profiles correspond to the linear polarisation profiles.
