r-band image from Mancera Piña et al. (2024). The red contours correspond to isophotes at 30, 29, 28, 27, and 26.3 mag arcsec−2. In the left panel, the star shows the center from Mancera Piña et al. (2024); the blue ellipse has a position angle of 78° and b/a = 0.86 (as in Mancera Piña et al. 2024), while the black ellipse has b/a = 1 (a perfectly face-on disk). In the right panel, the star is approximately at the center of the inner bar-like component; the blue ellipse has the same position angle and b/a as in the left panel, while the black ellipse has b/a ≃ 0.97 predicted by MOND (Fig. 3). Given the irregular and asymmetric galaxy morphology, this axial ratio cannot be ruled out.
