arXiv preprint astro-ph/0610541, 2006•arxiv.orgThanks to the high spatial resolution afforded by 8-10m class telescopes, we are beginning
to learn that some sources are extended in their mid-infrared emission because of dusty
outflows or heated outflow cavity walls. Therefore one must be extremely careful in
interpreting the nature of extended mid-infrared sources (ie just because it is extended does
not automatically mean it is a disk!).
