(a) Expected (blue) and observed (red) model disk P.A. vs. distance from the star at the Ks band. No correction is needed. (b) Same, except at L′. No correction is needed. (c) Expected (blue), observed (red), and corrected (green) model disk FWHM vs. distance from the star at the Ks band. An offset correction of ~0 farcs03 is needed. (d) Same, except at L′. An offset correction of ~0 farcs11 is needed. (e) Expected (blue), observed (red), and corrected (green) model disk SB vs. distance from the star. (f) Same, except at L′.
