37. Cross correlation between distortion and leakage effects can lead to B power through the intrinsic temperature–(Formula presented) polarization cross correlation (Formula presented) The expressions can be readily generalized to this case. Also, though we take the filtered power spectrum (Formula presented) to be smoothed by the main beam, this description can incorporate differential beam size fluctuations in the polarized beams by simply changing the filter (see Sec. III B).
38. For the scalar amplitude and parameters of the fiducial model (Formula presented) or (Formula presented) the ratio of quadrupolar power in CMB temperature anisotropies is (Formula presented)
