Caption: Figure 3.

(a) Ks-band eastern disk FWHM as a function of distance from the star. See the text for methodology. There is no obvious trend in FWHM vs. stellocentric distance. (b) Same as above, except for the western side of the disk. The FWHM increases with increasing distance from the star, though this may be an effect from the data reduction (see the Appendix).
