Notes. The parameters are similar to those of Skinner et al. (2014), except for the extent of the disk. The disk extent has been chosen according to a 2D gridscan for a total maximum likelihood over all 80 bins (see Sect. 3.1).

^(a)

An extent of 0° is equivalent to a point source.

^(b)

The Galactic Centre Source has been chosen to coincide with the position of Sgr A* (see text for details).
