Simulated polarization for a 10 × 10 arcminutes2 patch at a distance of 15.5° from the Moon based on a single-layer Rayleigh scattering model to describe the atmosphere. In this example, the coordinates of the Moon are (RA = 0°, Dec = 0°), while the patch is centered at (RA = 11.0°, Dec = 11.0°) in the geocentric celestial reference system (GCRS) coordinate system.
