Profile comparison for the O2 model shifting the connection point between the (quasi-)hydrostatic regime and the β–law. Left panel: Wind velocity profile, in solid black for the 2D averaged model of Debnath et al. (2024), solid red for the best-fit 1D PoWR model with v_turb > 0 and initial connection point (v_turb = 0.95 v_sonicturb), in dotted blue for the shifted connection point (v_con = 0.95 v_sonic). Middle panel: Same as the left panel, but for the density profile. Right panel: Same as the left panel, but for the gas temperature.
