CPD induced excess or deficit flux in aperture for all CPD model configurations and phase angles θ. Fluxes are extracted from the spectral channel with the maximum contrast with circumstellar disk emission. A value below 0 indicates the CPD is seen in absorption. A value larger than 100 indicates that the aperture flux is more than double that of a no-CPD model. The variation of parameters are relative to the reference CPD with planet mass M_P = 10 M_J, M_CPD = 0.01 M_P, χ_RT = 2 × 10⁶, and d/g = 10⁻³. A label “small” indicates that the CPD outer radius has been truncated to one third of the planet Hill radius. The angle of the triangle markers indicates the phase angle of the CPD relative to the circumstellar disk northern minor axes.
