RADMC-3D models of the inner HL Tau disk compared with the Band 9 observation. Top panel: convolved images of the nine different models with RADMC-3D that reproduce the observation better, corresponding to masses of 1 M_J, 3 M_J, and 5 M_J, paired with scale height values of 0.08, 0.05, and 0.03 H_p. The disk mass is defined as the dust mass within 32 au. Bottom panels: normalized azimuthal profiles considering the emission between 0.12 and 0.15 arcseconds in the HL Tau Band 9 observation and all the RADMC-3D models. The lowest panels depict the difference, measured in sigmas, between the observation and the respective models.
