Caption: Figure 10.

An R2-scaled view of the deconvolved F200W image, enhancing the outer-disk structures. This visualization shows the bifurcation feature at approximately 120 au, traced by a dotted logarithmic spiral with a 2° pitch angle. A white arrow points to the spiral track to aid identification; note that the arrow’s direction is for visual guidance only and carries no physical significance. The image is normalized, and a scale bar indicates the physical size of 60.1 au (1″) on the sky.
