  1. Parameters are defined in Fig. 8 and in the text. All parameters are measured in GHz.
  2. aThis value cannot be directly measured in experiments, but it is an estimation based on the experimental pλz = 5.3 GHz and theory-based assumptions of earlier works, claiming λ⊥/λz ≈ 1.296 and p ≈ 0.348.
