Constraints on the nuclear emission of the Circinus galaxy: the torus.
RUIZ M., EFSTATHIOU A., ALEXANDER D.M. and HOUGH J.
Abstract (from CDS):
By using a similar torus model to that of NGC 1068, but without the conical dust, we find an upper limit to the outer torus radius of ∼12pc with a best fit of ∼2pc. The upper limit torus size estimated from the radiative transfer modelling is consistent with the 16-pc torus radius estimated from near-IR imaging polarimetry of Circinus.
