Table A.1

Visibility brightness temperature estimates for specific patterns of brightness distribution.

Notes. Ir – brightness distribution function; Tb – brightness temperature estimated from Ir; Vq – visibility function; dq – pattern size, estimated from the visibility ratio Vq/V0; Tb,q – brightness temperature corresponding to dq; Tb,min – minimum brightness temperature, obtained with V0 = eVq for the Gaussian component and V0 = 2 Vq for the disk and the shell; Tb,lim – limiting brightness temperature, obtained with V0 = Vq + σq. For the brightness temperature estimates, the respective expression give the b term in the Planck form of the brightness temperature equation.
