The first glimpse of a water ice absorption map in the Milky Way

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Interstellar ice plays a key role in the thermal evolution of the interstellar medium and in astrochemical pathways, yet its large-scale distribution remains poorly constrained. We use the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) and the Two Micron All

Modeling galactic extinction

open access: yesAtti della Accademia Peloritana dei Pericolanti : Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali, 2011
We present a model for interstellar extinction dust, in which we assume a bimodal distribution of extinction carriers, a dispersion of core-mantle grains, supplemented by a collection of PAHs in free molecular form.

A Neutral Hydrogen Absorption Study of Cold Gas in the Outskirts of the Magellanic Clouds Using the GASKAP-H i Survey

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Cold neutral hydrogen (H i ) is a crucial precursor for molecular gas formation and can be studied via H i absorption. This study investigates H i absorption in low column density regions of the Small and Large Magellanic Clouds (SMC and LMC) using the ...

Interstellar absorption toward HD 14633

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1983
Observations are reported of optical interstellar absorption lines of Ti II, Ca II, and Na I in the spectrum of HD 14633, a probable runaway O star ejected from the Perseus spiral arm. Unusually high gas-phase abundances of the normally depleted elements Ca and Ti are found in three high-velocity interstellar line components; the light paths to only a ...

Diffuse interstellar bands towards ο Per and ξ Per [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Spectroscopic characteristics of interstellar matter vary strongly with the direction to the target star. Spectra of oPer and ξ Per contain many prominent and weak diffuse interstellar bands as well as absorption lines of some identiffed interstellar ...

Attenuation of LHAASO PeVatrons by the Interstellar Radiation Field and Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
“PeVatrons” refer to astrophysical sources capable of accelerating particles to energies around 10 ^15 electron volts and higher, potentially contributing to the cosmic-ray spectrum in the knee region.

Photochemistry of interstellar molecules [PDF]

open access: yes, 1971
The photochemistry of two diatomic and eight polyatomic molecules is discussed quantitatively. For an interstellar molecule, the lifetime against photodecomposition depends upon the absorption cross section, the quantum yield or probability of ...

Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV MaStar: Quantification and Abatement of Interstellar Absorption in the Largest Empirical Stellar Spectral Library

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We assess the impact of Ca ii λ λ 3934, 3969 and Na i λ λ 5891, 5897 absorption arising in the interstellar medium (ISM) on the Sloan Digital Sky Survey-IV MaNGA Stellar Library (MaStar) and produce corrected spectroscopy for 80% of the 24,162-star ...

On the long-wavelength absorption by interstellar dust

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1991
Two proposed modifications to the standard theory for the long-wavelength absorption by interstellar dust grains are shown to be incorrect. The Mie theory for spheres or cylinders, or the discrete dipole approximation for irregular shapes, are based on Maxwell's equations for the electromagnetic field and should be used instead of the modified formula ...
