Scientific paper

Multi-aperture IR photometry of the elliptical galaxy NGC 1052 shows
that its IR excess is confined to a region smaller than 2 arc sec (300
pc) in diameter coincident with the visible nucleus. It is suggested
that the emission in the 5-20 micron range arises from dust heated by
the nonthermal source seen at other wavelengths.
