Zoomed-in view of the inner region of Centaurus A adapted from Espada et al. (2017). Left: Color composite image of Centaurus A. Credit: ESO/WFI - Optical; MPIfR/ESO/APEX/Weiß et al. (2008) – Submillimeter; NASA/CXC/CfA/Kraft et al. (2003) – X-ray. Center: integrated CO(2-1) emission map from SMA (green) (Espada et al. 2009); dust emission at 8 μm from Spitzer/IRAC (blue) (Quillen et al. 2006); the jet in X-ray from Chandra (red) (Kraft et al. 2003). Right: Integrated CO(3-2) and CO(6-5) maps from ALMA (green and blue, respectively); H₂ 1–0 S(1) map at 2.122 μm from VLT/SINFONI (red). The red rectangles in the right panel are the mosaic footprints of the four MRS channels. The dashed white ellipses outline the CND as defined by Espada et al. (2017).
