(Left) Peak intensity as a function of the beam minor axis. (Right) Integrated intensity as a function of the beam minor axis. Note that both peak intensity and integrated intensity stay constant when the beam is ≲120 mas, suggesting that the CPD is spatially unresolved. When the beam is >120 mas, the peak intensity and integrated intensity increase due to the contamination from the circumstellar disk. In both panels, blue points present intensities in the fiducial image cube whereas red points present intensities in the image cube where the half-channel shift is applied.
