Notes. (a) Maximum value of the simulated flux, in 2.0–8.0 keV band. (b) Length of the time bin that we used in the simulation. For each model and for each case of flux, we report (when possible) the results for two cases of interest i.e. tbin where the simulated data are best-fitted by the nominal input model and tbinmax where the best-fit constant model provides a lower than that of the nominal input model. (c) Reduced χ2 obtained for models of the simulated Pobs(t). (d) Reduced χ2 obtained for models of the simulated θobs(t).(*) Injected model.(**) Best-fit constant model.(***) For the shock acceleration model, the case of tbinmax is not listed, because it is a single time bin of 20 ks. We also did not list any χ2(θ) because the polarization angle is not time variable in this model.(****) For the TEMZ model, it was computationally prohibitive to run simulations with time bins lower than 1 ks for the two higher values of flux.
