Primary beam question #2

Hello, I am trying to deconvolve the EHT data using my gpuvmem software.

When you deconvolve visibilities how do you deconvolve visibilities for each telescope in a separate way, each one with its own diameter/fov/primary beam? Or you assume a single dish of ~12.000 km (tell me if this datum is wrong) and therefore a unique primary beam and a fov of ~0.0226936046837 arcseconds?

Regards!

I have just realized that the single dish diameter is about 11000 km. Do you know what would be the exact diameter of the dish? With the data in the paper taking into account a wavelength of 1.3 mm
and angular resolution of 25 uas, we can get that D is about = 10726 km

Additionally, after having the self calibrated data, what considerations we must have when reconstructing the image?

Currently we have a reconstructed image but it is not close to the morphology you get in the paper, I am sure that we are missing something.

Cheers.
