The Interstellar Dust Properties of Nearby Galaxies [PDF]
Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2018 This article gives an overview of the constitution, physical conditions, and observables of dust in the interstellar medium of nearby galaxies. We first review the macroscopic, spatial distribution of dust in these objects and its consequences for our ability to study grain physics.

Dust evolution, a global view: II. Top-down branching, nanoparticle fragmentation and the mystery of the diffuse interstellar band carriers [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2016 The origin of the diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs), one of the longest-standing mysteries of the interstellar medium (ISM), is explored within the framework of The Heterogeneous dust Evolution Model for Interstellar Solids (THEMIS). The likely nature of

Interstellar Dust Grains [PDF]
Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2003 ▪ Abstract This review surveys the observed properties of interstellar dust grains: the wavelength-dependent extinction of starlight, including absorption features, from UV to infrared; optical luminescence; infrared emission; microwave emission; optical, UV, and X-ray scattering by dust; and polarization of starlight and of infrared emission.

Dust Emission in Galaxies at Millimeter Wavelengths: Cooling of star forming regions in NGC6946 [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2022 Interstellar dust plays an important role in the formation of molecular gas and the heating and cooling of the interstellar medium. The spatial distribution of the mm-wavelength dust emission from galaxies is largely unexplored. The NIKA2 Guaranteed Time

An R V Map of the Milky Way Revealed by LAMOST
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023 The total-to-selective extinction ratio, R _V , is a key parameter for tracing the properties of interstellar dust, as it directly determines the variation of the extinction curve with wavelength.
