Near-infrared adaptive optics imaging and corresponding sensitivity curves for BD+05 4868 A in (a) the narrowband J continuum (Jcont) and in (b) the narrowband K continuum (Kcont). The increased uncertainty at Δarcsec ∼ 3﹩\mathop{.}\limits^{\unicode{x02033}}﹩0 is caused by the presence of BD+05 4868 B.
