AKARI/FIS false-colour maps of α Ori in the SW bands – N60 (65 μm) and WIDE-S (90 μm) at 15′′/pixel scale – and in the LW bands – WIDE-L (140 μm) and N160 (160 μm) at 30′′/pixel scale – from left to right, respectively (Ueta et al. 2008). Background emission has been subtracted by a combination of temporal filters during data reduction. RA and Dec offsets (with respect to the stellar peak) are given in arcminutes. The wedges at the top indicate the log scale of surface brightness in MJy sr^-1. North is up, and east to the left.
