30. Summary -An axisymmetric self consistent 2 dust-disk radiation transfer solution to the global morphology from 1.2 to 850 micron exists -Predicted mid-plane ISRF high than before, especially in the central regions. IC scattering of the ISRF exceeds that off the CMB everywhere within the solar circle, with consequence for modelling both diffuse gamma-ray emission and gamma-rays from CR sources. -High latitude transclucent clouds (“Cirrus”) have been detected by Fermi/LAT from 0.1 to 100Gev, and are a likely source of high latitude Inverse Compton as well as pion emission - MIR/FIR Radiation fields within the inner 10pc have been severely underestimated in the past and have the potential to constrain the geometry of central gamma-ray emitters via analysis of modulation of the VHE spectrum via pair-production opacity
