Image Details
Caption: Figure 8.
Top: same as Figure 2 but without the residual extinction correction applied. Bottom: extinction curve published in the MIR Extinction Paper (black) and the residual-corrected extinction curve (blue) are compared. The residual extinction was calculated assuming Sgr A*’s SED is a power law during the flare. A few measurements of the corrected SED are also plotted.
