Probability distribution functions for eccentricity (left), inclination (middle), and angle to the ascending node (right) as a function of the line-of-sight distance for the six stars with significant accelerations in the plane of the sky. The absolute value of the line-of-sight distance, | z|, is precisely determined for each of these stars from their measured accelerations. The sign ambiguity of z results in the degenerate set of solutions. The stars S0-15 and S1-14 have solutions consistent with z = 0. The 1σ and 2σ contours of the PDFs are overplotted as solid lines.
