Not-to-scale sketch showing inferred structure of the system. The star and its magnetosphere are displayed in the center, the red arrow indicates the rotation axis of the star, magnetosphere, and corotating inner disk. Inner disk is deformed in regions where the magnetosphere is joining in, which causes warps that cross our line of sight when the disk rotates. Theouter and inner disk are highly inclined in relation to each other, so there are always shadows along the line where the plane of the inner disk and the plane of the outer disk cross. It should be noted that the inner disk is expected to be more wobbly and irregular than shown here.
