Scientific paper

ISOCAM maps of the Seyfert 1 S0 galaxy NGC 3998 between 4.5microns and
15microns detect both extended emission from the bulge stars and strong
point source emission from the nucleus. The inner regions of NGC 3998
appear to contain a few thousand solar masses of warm ( ~ 200 K) dust,
probably associated with the AGN.
