Diagram depicting the relative angles of the WD binary systems. The obliquity ψ (or λ when only the sky-projected obliquity is known) and γ angle – defined between the vector connecting the astrometric positions of the two stars (r) and the difference in velocity vectors (v) – found in this study are shown, along with the sky-projected separations. The γ angle is affected by the eccentricity, and its relation to the orientation of the planet’s orbit is unknown; thus, the γ angle alone cannot constrain the orbits and is merely a proxy measurement. Distances and sizes are not to scale.
