Table 1

Relative astrometric position and flux contrast for the main binary Aa–Ab (photo-center of Ab1–Ab2), and for the close binary Ab1–Ab2, as derived from our best-fit of the closure phases measured by VLT/NaCo-SAM and VLTI/PIONIER.

Notes. The formal errors on NaCo-SAM PA do not include uncertainties due the detector orientation.

(a)

After correction for FOV attenuation (see text), the related uncertainty dominates.
