Interstellar extinction and polarization -- A spheroidal dust grain approach perspective [PDF]

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2010
We extend and investigate the spheroidal model of interstellar dust grains used to simultaneously interpret the observed interstellar extinction and polarization curves.

New Interstellar Dust Models Consistent with Extinction, Emission, and Abundance Constraints [PDF]

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2003
We present new interstellar dust models which have been derived by simultaneously fitting the far-ultraviolet to near-infrared extinction, the diffuse infrared (IR) emission and, unlike previous models, the elemental abundance constraints on the dust for

Dust Plasma Analogue for Interstellar 217.5 nm Extinction [PDF]

Serbian Astronomical Journal, 2008
The new ultraviolet (UV) extinction measurements of carbonaceous nanoparticles in the range from 140 nm to 260 nm are presented. The plasma polymerized hydrocarbon nanoparticles were already proposed as a new astro analogue, which describe the infrared (

New Ultraviolet Extinction Curves for Interstellar Dust in M31 [PDF]

The Astrophysical Journal, 2015
New low-resolution UV spectra of a sample of reddened OB stars in M31 were obtained with HST/STIS to study the wavelength dependence of interstellar extinction and the nature of the underlying dust grain populations.

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

A First Taste of MEAD (Measuring Extinction and Abundances of Dust). I. Diffuse Milky Way Interstellar Dust Extinction Features in JWST Infrared Spectra

The Astronomical Journal
We present the initial results of the Measuring Extinction and Abundances of Dust project, with a focus on the dust extinction features observed in our JWST near- and mid-infrared spectra of nine diffuse Milky Way sightlines (1.2 ≤ A ( V ) ≤ 2.5).

Empirical Temperature- and Extinction-dependent Extinction Coefficients for the GALEX, Pan-STARRS 1, Gaia, SDSS, 2MASS, and WISE Passbands

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2022
We have obtained accurate dust reddening from the far-ultraviolet to the mid-infrared for up to 5 million stars by the star-pair algorithm based on LAMOST stellar parameters along with Galaxy Evolution Explorer, Pan-STARRS 1, Gaia, Sloan Digital Sky ...

SpeX Near-infrared Spectroscopic Extinction Curves in the Milky Way

The Astrophysical Journal, 2022
Interstellar dust extinction curves provide valuable information about dust properties, including the composition and size of the dust grains, and are essential to correct observations for the effects of interstellar dust.

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.
