Marginal mass–separation posteriors from absolute astrometry for 50 exoplanetary systems hosting Jovian exoplanets. The separation calculated from our posteriors is the 3D separation between the companion and the host star, in au, at mid-2015. The BF label at the top right of each plot indicates the Bayes factor in favor of a companion. The colored markers indicate known planetary-mass companions from the NEA, with the color identifying the planet name. The semimajor axis and mass of each known planet are plotted. In cases where no true mass is available, an arrow indicates the value is an ﹩m\sin i﹩ from RV measurements, and the true mass may be higher depending on inclination.
