Caption: Figure 11.
Top: a forward-directed local background model, anchored to an arbitrary point from Figure 5, near 3C 270. Circled points are within one background-subtraction scale length, but above the model. Middle: forward- and backward-directed local background models, anchored to every point in the scan. Bottom: global background model, constructed from the local background models.
