Fit with all six free parameters (blue long-dashed lines), fit with az = aRleft as a free parameter (cyan short-dashed lines), fit with az fixed at 6.6 kpc (twice the disk scale-length) and aR free (magenta dotted lines), fit with az fixed at 6.6 kpc (twice the disk scale-length) and aR fixed at the disk scale-length, 3.3 kpc (black solid lines), and fit it with az = aR left as a free parameter, and with σz/σR fixed at 0.63 (red dot-dashed lines). Note that the bottom panel has a different horizontal scale from the top three panels. In the bottom panel the Hα data (full circles) come from Palunas & Williams (2000).
