Observed flux ratios between “early” and “late” observations (Flate/Fearly) compared with the modeled ratios of cross section (Slate/Searly) based on the prolate ellipsoid model using the aspect angle ﹩\alpha =71\mathop{.}\limits^{{\unicode{x000b0}}}7﹩ (K. Jockers et al. 2011 pole). The best-fit parameters are ﹩a/b=2.26﹩ and ﹩{\phi }_{0}=102^\circ ﹩ (see text).
