Animations of Chapter 2:
Radiative Transfer Models for Continuous Tori

The animations provided on this page show an inclination angle study for the standard model of Chapter 2 of my thesis in steps of 5°. Displayed are surface brightness distributions of pure dust reemission at a wavelength of 13.2 μm. The images are given in a linear color scale, ranging from the minimum to the maximum of each image. Only the innermost few parsecs are shown (labels are given in parsec).

Standard model, inclination angles 0°-90°
Standard model, inclination angles 0°-175°
