Probability density function P(λ|Ψ, io = π/2) of the 2D projected angle (λ) for two fixed values of Ψstar, BH, 7.7° (top panel) and 153.2° (lower panel). In the two cases, we have considered an orbital inclination of io = π/2. The histograms are the results obtained from a Monte Carlo method (using 10 000 random lines-of-sight) while the red lines are analytical solutions.
