The meaning of WISE colours - I. The Galaxy and its satellites
Robert Nikutta, Nicholas Hunt-Walker, Maia Nenkova +2
Through matches with the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) catalogue we identify the location of various families of astronomical objects in WISE colour space. We identify reliable i…
AGN torus properties with WISE
Robert Nikutta, Maia Nenkova, Zeljko Ivezic +2
The Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) has scanned the entire sky with unprecedented sensitivity in four infrared bands, at 3.4, 4.6, 12, and 22 micron. The WISE Point Sour…
AGN Dusty Tori: I. Handling of Clumpy Media
Maia Nenkova, Matthew M. Sirocky, Zeljko Ivezic +1
According to unified schemes of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), the central engine is surrounded by dusty, optically thick clouds in a toroidal structure. We have recently developed…
IR emission from AGNs
Moshe Elitzur, Maia Nenkova, Zeljko Ivezic
Unified schemes of active galactic nuclei (AGN) require an obscuring dusty torus around the central source, giving rise to type 1 line spectrum for pole-on viewing and type 2 chara…
Dust Emission from Active Galactic Nuclei
M. Nenkova, Z. Ivezic, M. Elitzur
Unified schemes of active galactic nuclei (AGN) require an obscuring dusty torus around the central source, giving rise to Seyfert 1 line spectrum for pole-on viewing and Seyfert 2…
User Manual for DUSTY
Zeljko Ivezic, Maia Nenkova, Moshe Elitzur
DUSTY solves the problem of radiation transport in a dusty environment. The code can handle both spherical and planar geometries. The user specifies the properties of the radiation…
