Polarimetric investigation of selected cloud compositions in exoplanetary atmospheres

Open Access

Fig. 6

Polarization contrast C_pol (see Eq. (10)) as a function of wavelength and phase angle for various cloud compositions and a cloud-free atmosphere (top left). As indicated by the spherical symbols at the top, a phase angle of 0° corresponds to the planet in full phase. See Sect. 5 for details.
