RADIATION-DRIVEN OUTFLOWS FROM AND RADIATIVE SUPPORT IN DUSTY TORI OF ACTIVE GALACTIC NUCLEI

ABSTRACT Substantial evidence points to dusty, geometrically thick tori obscuring the central engines of active galactic nuclei (AGNs), but so far no mechanism satisfactorily explains why cool dust in the torus remains in a puffy geometry. Near-Eddington infrared (IR) and ultraviolet (UV) luminositi...
