Extended Data Table 5 MCMC fitting results for Case I–Case VI

From: Precessing jet nozzle connecting to a spinning black hole in M87

  1. The last column is the reduced \({\widehat{\chi }}^{2}\) value calculated with the best-fit model parameters (see Equation (15)). We adopt Case III as the final fitting results as shown in Table 1. aFor Case I, \({\widehat{\chi }}^{2}\) is not applicable since there is a degeneracy between ψjet and θ. The values correspond to the means of the MCMC samples with standard deviations.
