Interstellar polarization - Magnetite dust

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1975
The polarization and extinction properties of magnetite, or Fe$sub 3$O$sub 4$, dust grains are calculated based on indirect evidence that magnetite grains might be the interstellar polarizers. The extinction and phase-lag cross sections of magnetite grains are calculated using a computer method for nonspherical grains.

Silicate Extinction Profile Based on the Stellar Spectrum by Spitzer/IRS

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The 9.7 and 18 μ m interstellar spectral features, arising from the Si–O stretching and O–Si–O bending modes of amorphous silicate dust, are the strongest extinction features in the infrared.

Time Evolution of Optical Darkness in Gamma-Ray Burst Afterglow: The Case of GRB 240825A

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are believed to occur in star-forming regions. The multiwavelength follow-up observations of the early afterglow of GRB 240825A provided insights into the evolution of the optical-to-X-ray spectral feature of the ...

Extreme Starlight Polarization Efficiency toward ζ Ophiuchi: A Case for Line-of-sight Foreground Subtraction

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Despite the pervasive nature of interstellar dust and its impact on nearly all observations, most dust corrections employ line-of-sight averages over large angular scales.
