QΦ–r2 scaled image. The near and far-side of the disk are marked, north is up, east is left. Left panel: ellipses show the de-projected scattering surface. Near and far-side of the disk are defined according to the brightness asymmetries: brighter side closer to the observer. Middle panel: brighter side of the disk is coming from the illuminated wall of the outer disk. The orange and red ellipses mark the walls of the disk, the grey-shaded area marks the optically thick disk. Right panel: shadowed disk. The heavy-shaded grey area shows the portion of the disk that is shadowed due to the multiple inner rings misalignment. The light-shaded grey area marks the portion of the disk that is not shadowed, and is emitting in scattered light.
