FUV (top panel) and NUV (bottom panel) background-subtracted surface brightness radial profiles. Surface brightness axis is limited to highlight the extended emission near ~100'', bins closest to the central point source emission are indicated with upward pointing arrows because their emission lies beyond the plot range.
