Correlated fluxes of NGC 1068 at λ = 12.5 μm as a function of the projected baseline length BL. Left: the data are colored according to their respective position angles. The solid lines represent the correlated fluxes obtained at two different position angles from the Gaussian modeling (model 1). The contribution of each component is represented by different lines: the dotted line represents the first component, the dashed line is the second component, and the dash-dotted line the third component for a PA = 70°. Right: expected radial plot using the photometry from Bock et al. (2000) for NGC 1068 if the source is placed at a distance times farther away than its current position.
