The infrared spectrum of NGC 1068.
Abstract
New infrared photometry of NGC 1068 shows that the spectrum continues to rise smoothly through 34 microns and that there is a shallow absorption feature near 10 microns. The total infrared flux from the nuclear source is about 2.3 times 10 to the minus 11th watts per sq m, which corresponds to a luminosity of 10 to the 11th suns at a distance of 11 Mpc.
