Panels (A) and (B) from Buenzli et al. (2010). Panel (C): log10 display from [−3] to [+2.13] dex counts s−1 pixel−1, FOV 400 × 250 STIS pixels (2028 × 1014). Panel (D): gradient-edge enhancement by high-pass spatial filtering (at the expense of flux conservation) emphasizes the inflection of the high(er) SB ridge where the edge of the skirt joins the ring ansae. Log10 display from [−3.5] to [0] dex counts s−1 pixel−1. Panels (C) and (D): red circle r = 03 (6 STIS pixels = physical IWA angle limit of occulting WedgeA-0.6).
