SOFIA 34.8 μm image of the ϵ Eri system. Both images were smoothed by a Gaussian kernel of 1.5 pixels. The color scale is shown in units of signal-to-noise ratio with 1σ of 0.6 mJy arcsec−2. The white circle in the left corner in both panels shows the beam size of the F348 filter, while the dashed yellow ellipse marks the inclined 64 au cold Kuiper-belt analog. The left panel (a) shows the final coadded mosaics before stellar subtraction while the right panel (b) shows after.
