摘要
ISO spectroscopic observations are reported towards the well known infrared source, L1551 IRS 5. The continuum spectral energy distribution has been modelled using a 2D radiative transfer model, and fitted for a central source luminosity of 50 L-circle dot, surrounding a dense torus extending to a distance of similar to 30,000 AU, which has a total (gas + dust) mass of 25 M-circle dot. The extinction towards the outflow is estimated to be A(v) = 11 and the mid-plane optical depth to L1551 IRS 5 to be 140. On the basis of this model, the extinction curve, shows that emission at wavelengths shorter than similar to 2 mum is due to scattered light from close to L1551 IRS 5, while at wavelengths greates than 4 mum, is seen through the full extinguishing column towards the central source.
