On the Abiotic Origin of Dimethyl Sulfide: Discovery of Dimethyl Sulfide in the Interstellar Medium

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Following the discovery of dimethyl sulfide (DMS; CH _3 SCH _3 ) signatures in comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko, we report the first detection of this organosulfur species in the interstellar medium during the exploration of an ultradeep molecular line ...

The 2200 A bump and the UV extinction curve

open access: yes, 2012
The 2200 A bump is a major figure of interstellar extinction. Extinction curves with no bump however exist and are, with no exception, linear from the near-infrared down to 2500 A at least, often over all the visible-UV spectrum.

The Role of Magnetic Field in Molecular Cloud Formation and Evolution

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2019
We review the role that magnetic field may have on the formation and evolution of molecular clouds. After a brief presentation and main assumptions leading to ideal MHD equations, their most important correction, namely the ion-neutral drift is described.

The Multiwavelength Extinction Law and Its Variation in the Coalsack Molecular Cloud Based on the Gaia, APASS, SMSS, 2MASS, GLIMPSE, and WISE Surveys

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Accurate interpretation of observations relies on the interstellar dust extinction law, which also serves as a powerful diagnostic for probing dust properties.

Epsilon Canis Majoris: The Brightest Extreme-ultraviolet Source with Surprisingly Low Interstellar Absorption

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The B2 star Epsilon Canis Majoris ( ϵ CMa), at parallax distance d = 124 ± 2 pc, dominates the H i photoionization of the Local Interstellar Cloud. At its closer parallax distance compared to previous estimates, ϵ CMa has a 0.9 mag fainter absolute ...

Photometry and Classification of Stars in the Direction of the Dark Cloud TGU 619 in Cepheus. II. Interstellar Extinction and Cloud Distance

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2011
Interstellar extinction is investigated in a 1.5 square degree area of the Cepheus Flare in the direction of the dark cloud TGU 619 at ℓ=102.5°, b=+15.5°.
