Posterior pdf for the separation and orientation of the object components for the favored model ﹩{{ \mathcal M }}_{5}﹩. Upper left: the marginalized posterior pdf for the projected separation of the occulted object components. Lower right: the marginalized posterior pdf for the position angle of the secondary component with respect to the primary. The angle is measured from the north toward the east. Lower-left: the joint posterior pdf for the same parameters.
