Caption: Fig. 38.

Same as Fig. 35, but with data inclined by the favored CS orientation of ﹩i_{x}=41^{\circ }﹩ and ﹩i_{y}=8^{\circ }﹩ and an ellipticity of 0.94 removed from the radii. Circles that are now considered part of the hourglass are marked by open squares, and the case‐A only points (Fig. 35) are marked by pluses. The average radial profiles to each structure are overplotted. The dashed line shows the inner edge of the belt, used in § 8.3. Note that there are many binned averages in this plot, which are discussed in the § 8.2.
