Scientific paper

It is shown that scattering atmospheres exist in the magnetospheres of luminous compact objects from considerations of resonance effects in magnetic Compton scattering. These regions of stable equilibria are formed by a balance between the forces of gravity and resonant Compton scattering, and could be important in spectral models of white dwarfs and neutron stars.
