MIPS and ancillary images of M81 shown convolved to have the 160 μm PSF that introduces a prominent Airy ring around bright point sources. The field of view of the images is ﹩15^{\prime }\times 23^{\prime }﹩. Bright foreground stars were masked in the UV and Hα images prior to convolution. The ellipse denotes the region discussed in § 3.1.
