Table 4

Geometry and velocity-distance laws.

Geometry

Position angle 60°
Inclination 45° (southwestern is closer)
Inner/outer opening angle 15°/33°

Velocity law according to Das et al. (2005)
V max@R1 800 km s-1
R1/R2 96 pc/400 pc

Constant velocity law according to Storchi-Bergmann et al. (2010)
VC 600 km s-1
R 400 pc

Notes.Das et al. (2005): Acceleration to Vmax@R1, the maximum radial velocity, occurs at radius R1 and deceleration back to systemic velocity occurs at radius R2. Storchi-Bergmann et al. (2010): constant ejection velocity VC without emission beyond a radial distance of R.
