Updated Gaia-2MASS 3D maps of Galactic interstellar dust [PDF]
Three-dimensional (3D) maps of Galactic interstellar dust are a tool for a wide range of uses. We aim to construct 3D maps of dust extinction in the Local Arm and surrounding regions.

Variations of Interstellar Gas-to-dust Ratios at High Galactic Latitudes [PDF]
Interstellar dust at high Galactic latitudes can influence astronomical foreground subtraction, produce diffuse scattered light, and soften the UV spectra of quasars.

Interstellar extinction and polarization - a spheroidal dust grain approach perspective [PDF]
We extend and investigate the spheroidal model of interstellar dust grains used to simultaneously interpret the observed interstellar extinction and polarization curves.

Oxygen and iron in interstellar dust: An X-ray investigation [PDF]
Understanding the chemistry of the interstellar medium (ISM) is fundamental for the comprehension of the Galactic and stellar evolution. X-rays provide an excellent way to study the dust chemical composition and crystallinity along different sight-lines ...

Dust Extinction Law in Nearby Star-resolved Galaxies. I. M31 Traced by Supergiants [PDF]
The dust extinction laws and dust properties in M31 are explored with a sample of reddened O-type and B-type supergiants obtained from the Local Group Galaxies Survey (LGGS).

Decomposition of the central structure of NGC 2273 in the NIR: A case study
Abstract The Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 2273 is a prime target to explore how active nuclei can be fed. It has a star‐forming innermost nuclear ring with a radius of 0.33kpc from where material may be funneled to the supermassive black hole in its center. In this article, we discuss high‐resolution adaptive optics aided JHKs images of NGC 2273 taken with the

Abstract The kinetics of the tautomerization of thio‐imidic acids RC(SH)NH were determined at low (50–300 K) and high (500–1500 K) temperatures as R was varied to encompass mono‐ and diatomic species H, F, HO, NC, CN through H2N, HC(O), HC(S), HC≡ C, H3C, F3C, HOCH2, H2C=CH, CH3C(O), H2NCH2 and including ethyl, isopropyl and phenyl groups. The presence

Observational Constraints on the Physical Properties of Interstellar Dust in the Post-Planck Era [PDF]
We present a synthesis of the astronomical observations constraining the wavelength-dependent extinction, emission, and polarization from interstellar dust from UV to microwave wavelengths on diffuse Galactic sight lines.
