Latest naming scheme from the paper draft:

Term Example
$\alpha$ asymmetry parameter $\frac{2}{\Gamma}\frac{\mathrm{d}\Gamma}{\mathrm{d}\cos\theta} = 1 + P \alpha \cos\theta$
$\overline{\alpha}$ averaged polarimeter vector $\overline{\alpha}_j = \int I_0\alpha_j \mathrm{d}^n \tau \big/ \int I_0\mathrm{d}^n \tau$
$\vec\alpha$ aligned polarimeter vector $\vec{h} = R(\phi,\theta,\chi) \vec{\alpha}$
$\vec{h}$ polarimeter vector $\mathrm{d} \Gamma \propto (1+ \vec{P}\cdot\vec{h}),\mathrm{d}\Phi$
$S$ scalar polarization sensitivity $S_0^2 = 3 \int I_0 |\vec\alpha|^2 \mathrm{d}^n \tau \big/ \int I_0,\mathrm{d}^n\tau$

for $\alpha$, asymmetry parameter would be more accurate
