The fit to the radially averaged Mercury intensity profiles for
CN-band, blue continuum, green continuum, and red continuum wavelengths. Open
circles outline the observed intensity profile, the solid line  represents the
fit to the observed profile and filled circles follow the intensity profile after
correction. The vertical dashed line marks the Mercury's limb.</p></td>
