OH megamasers in warped circumnuclear torus of IRAS 10173+0828

From high-resolution MERLIN§ observations of OH megamasers in the circumnuclear torus of IRAS 10173+0828, evidence has been secured for a warp of the circumnuclear torus. Moreover, a positive correlation between the angular size of east-west extensions of contours and the peak flux density in the velocity channels is found.§The National Radio Antenna Array of PPARC run by Manchester University
