Mapping Galactic Dust Emission and Extinction with H I, H II, and H2

The Astrophysical Journal
Neutral hydrogen (H i ) emission closely traces the dust column density at high Galactic latitudes and is thus a powerful tool for predicting dust extinction. However, the relation between H i column density N _HI and high-latitude dust emission observed

Strength Ratios of Diffuse Interstellar Bands in Slightly Reddened Objects

Universe
The disk of the Milky Way fills the interstellar medium in the form of discrete clouds, many (∼30) light-years across. The average density of this medium is 1 hydrogen atom per cm3 (Oort limit), in the clouds—several dozen atoms, and between the clouds ...

Evaluating maturity of organic matter in hydrated C1 and CM‐like clasts and a dehydrated clast within a polymict eucrite and a howardite

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 8, Page 1965-1993, August 2026.
Abstract Volatile‐rich xenolithic clasts in different types of brecciated meteorites represent unique pristine solar system material. This study investigates the maturity and thermal history of organic matter using Raman spectroscopy and aqueous alteration effects using infrared spectroscopy in the matrix of 15 volatile‐rich clasts (C1 and CM‐like ...

Modeling the Optical Colors of Galactic Cirrus Clouds in the Stripe 82 Region

The Astronomical Journal
Observations have shown that the optical colors of Galactic cirrus clouds differ significantly from those of extragalactic sources; thus, they can be used to distinguish Galactic cirrus from extragalactic low surface brightness (LSB) features.

Raman analysis of organic refractory materials after energetic processing: Evidence for amorphous carbon on TNOs and comets

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 8, Page 1994-2015, August 2026.
Abstract Amorphous carbon (αC) is found in various extraterrestrial particles, including those thought to originate from the outer Solar System. αC can form through two main processes involving C‐rich materials: exposure to energetic charged particles and thermal processing.

The Determination of Electron Abundances in Interstellar Clouds [PDF]

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1979
A new method for estimating electron fractions in shielded molecular clouds is proposed on the basis of gas phase ion-molecule reactions which involves measuring the quantity . Applied to existing data, it yields upper limits to Xe in the range from 10−8 to 10−7 for a variety of clouds, warm as well as cool.

Grain growth, optical polarisation, and extinction in interstellar clouds [PDF]

, 1989
Increases in the wavelength of maximum polarization and the ratio of total to selective extinction are generally assumed to be the result of grain growth in interstellar clouds.

Complex K: Supernova Origin of Anomalous-velocity H i Structure

The Astrophysical Journal
We address one of the lingering mysteries of high-velocity clouds: If the anomalous negative velocities are the result of the approaching gas from old supernovae, then where are the receding counterparts of the expanding shells?

Boron abundances in diffuse interstellar clouds [PDF]

Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2009
AbstractWe present a comprehensive survey of B abundances in diffuse interstellar clouds from HST/STIS observations along 56 Galactic sight lines. Our sample is the result of a complete search of archival STIS data for the B II λ1362 resonance line, with each detection confirmed by the presence of absorption from other dominant ions at the same ...
