Notes.

(a)

inferred from and μ = M2/Mtot = ro/a;

(b)

in Scenario 3, assume rigid disk precession obeying Eq. (1) of Terquem et al. (1999) with disk radius R/a 1/3 and Vo = 2πro/τo ≤ 1.2 km s-1 (jet orbital spreading < 2°). However, non-rigid disk precession induced by VLA4A is not excluded.

(c)

upper value suggested by our model fit.
