Notes:

a

nDIT is the number of image frames and tDIT is exposure time per image frame.

b

We do not use two observations in 2016 in this work because of their bad observing conditions that strongly affect the disk morphology. Before new coatings on the telescope spiders in 2017, SPHERE was affected by the low wind effect for wind speeds lower than 5 m s−1 (Milli et al. 2018). Such a low wind effect results in strong stellar-light leakage around the IWA and strong spider patterns (i.e., diffraction spikes). As a result, the spider patterns strongly alter the disk morphology, which prevents us from correctly measuring the locations of spiral arms.
