*V1(λ) The core spectrum of Centaurus A Correlated flux of core
Synchrotron core: n(E) ~ E-1.72 RC = 1.5 x 1014m = 1000 AU B = 0.3 G Psyn = 7 x 1034 W acc = 2.4 days ~ τvar The core spectrum of Centaurus A
MIDI - VLTI observations of Centaurus A Basic result: • Unresolved core: 80 ... 60% of 8 ... 13 µm flux • “Dust disk“: d ~ 0.6 pc, b:a = 1:3 (i = 66° ?), T = 240 K Pdust = 3x1034 W Pheat > 1035 W but: PUV ~ 3x1034 W = 0.00004 PEdd
conclusions Points of Interest: NGC1068: hot dust coincides with H20 masers+free-free emission Warped disk; silicate absorption Circinus: less hot dust; (less) warped disk; SiO4 abs Others: little hot dust; optically thin(?); no SiO4 abs
conclusions Critical Issues: Warping/Asymmetries Optical Thickness in different sources Hot dust
