Fig. 3

Modeling an optically-thick, elliptically-shaped, extended and fragmented torus with θ0 = 30° measured relative to the symmetry axis. The fraction F/F∗ of the central flux (upper four panels) and the spatially integrated polarization P (lower four panels) are seen at different viewing inclinations, i, from 2000 to 8000 Å. The fluxes and polarizations are shown for a uniform-density model and three fragmented counterparts with filling factors ranging from 0.06 to 0.25. We note the change in scale between the spectra of the four models.
