Abstract

Near-infrared and mid-infrared broad band interferometric observations of young stellar objectstrace the inner part of the warm dusty circumstellar environment(smaller than a few AUs) and canbe used to constrain its physical properties, in particular tocharacterize the size, location and composition of the emitting region. Because the spatial frequency coverage of current instruments remain sparse,modeling, including detailed radiative transfer (RT), is necessary to geta precise estimate of these properties.
