Scans of the recentered average images of ξ Sco AB taken on 2020 March 13 at SOAR in three filters. The flux is summed perpendicular to the binary, normalized by the maximum, and plotted along the separation direction. The northern component B is fainter than A by 3 ± 1% in all filters. The insert shows the average image of this pair taken on 2017 June 6 in the filter y (532 nm), with a separation of 1.″127 and a position angle of 7.°8.
