Caption: Figure 3.

Spitzer IRAC images at 3.6 μm (left) and 4.5 μm (right) in a square arcminute field around the nucleus. The 3.6 μm image has had an azimuthally smoothed version of the image subtracted, in order to emphasize the jet emission. The 4.5 μm image is of the nonstellar emission where the stellar emission was modeled based on the scaled 3.6 μm emission in the same manner as for Figure 1.
