1 A TALE OF TWO MONSTERS: EMBEDDED AGN IN NGC6418 AND IRAS Photometry Aperture Optical 3.6 µm E 4.5 µm N Normalized flux Figure 3.1: NGC6418 false color image from the Spitzer space telescope at 3.6 µm. The white circle has a radius of 6 pixels and represents the aperture (diameter 7.2 ) used for the photometry for the cross-correlation analysis. 1.2 flux. Therefore, the flux vs. aperture function should plateau with increasing radii. All Figures for all AGNs can be found in Appendix A. All the mean flux density plots exhibit, as expected, a rapidly increasing flux density that plateaus at larger aperture sizes with some exceptions. NGC6418, UGC10697, MRK885, AKN524 and KAZ163 exhibit aperture 0.8 analysis plots that increase in mean flux without reaching a plateau. This behavior is explained by the extended emission from their host galaxies as seen in Figures 3.1, A.49, A.41, A.17 and 3.2. In addition, KAZ163 is the southern 0.6member of an interacting galaxy pair. The companion galaxy is the fainter object visible in 3.2. The companion galaxy is at a distance greater than pixels (12 ). This aperture55500 size is the largest used in the analysis. The knee of the flux vs. aperture function is used to determine the best MJD aperture. To determine the knee, the simple definition of the intersection of the slopes of the first two data points with the last two data points is used. On average, the obtained knee values agree with the ideal aperture found via visual inspection. It is important to note that there is no significant di erence between the aperture analysis for the 3.6 µm and 4.5 µm channels. As an example, Figures 3.3 and A.4 show the analysis done for both channels for NGC6418. There is less than a pixel di erence between the two channels Andy Robinson 22 Rochester Institute of Technology

Here we invoke both approaches in comparing our model predictions with observations. We start by assembling dusty clouds into complete models of the torus, as described in x 2. Our model predictions for torus emission and the implications for IR observations are presented in xx 3Y5, while in x 6wediscussaspects of clumpiness that are unrelated to the IR emission, such as the torus mass and unification statistics.

(C f ) Consider an AGN with bolometric luminosity L surrounded by a toroidal distribution of dusty clouds (Fig. 1). The naked AGN flux at distance D is F AGN ¼ L/4D 2 at any direction, but because of absorption and reemission by the torus clouds the actual flux distribution is anisotropic, with the level of anisotropy strongly dependent on wavelength. The grain mix has standard interstellar properties (see x of Paper I for details), and the Quasi-spherical distribution of optical thick clouds 31
