 Temperature-only tight-coupling quadrupole

For $\Theta (\mu )={\sum }_{\ell }(-i{)}^{\ell }{\Theta }_{\ell }{P}_{\ell }(\mu )$ and a Thomson collision operator omitting polarization feedback, the quadrupole relaxes with rate $(9/10){\Gamma }_T$, where ${\Gamma }_T=-{\tau }^{\prime }>0$. Balancing its leading streaming source gives ${\Theta }_2=20k{\Theta }_1/(27{\Gamma }_T)$. This differs from photon quadrupole in tight coupling with polarization; the two formulas expand different collision operators.
