Multi-wavelength spatial comparison between the models and the observations. First column from the left: the spatial appearance of the continuum emission from HH 48 NE in the optical HST observations, JWST MIRI observations, and millimeter ALMA continuum observations. Second and third columns: spatial appearance of the continuum emission from the fiducial model and MIRI fit, respectively, after convolution to a representative PSF. Last two columns: median averaged vertical and radial profile of the continuum emission normalized to the peak (black) with the fiducial model (orange) and MIRI fit (blue) on top. The orange box marks the region where HH 48 SW starts dominating the continuum.
