3D Radiative Transfer Modeling of Clumpy Dust Tori Around AGN
S. F. Hoenig, T. Beckert, K. Ohnaka +1
We present 3-dimensional radiative transfer models for clumpy dust tori around AGN. Our method combines Monte Carlo simulations of individual dust clouds with the actual 3-dimensio…

Radiative Transfer Modeling of Three-Dimensional Clumpy AGN Tori and its Application to NGC 1068
S. F. Hoenig, T. Beckert, K. Ohnaka +1
Recent observations of NGC 1068 and other AGN support the idea of a geometrically and optically thick dust torus surrounding the central supermassive black hole and accretion disk…
