Normalized radial surface brightness profiles of the Gemini-N 450P images on 2022 August 21 (r﹩{}^{{\prime} }﹩; left panel) and 2022 September 27 (g﹩{}^{{\prime} }﹩; right panel). Surrounding field star profiles are overplotted with a gray shaded region representing their range of scatter. 450P’s profiles are similar to those of the field stars, which is consistent with little to no dust coma present.
