DIBs, Interstellar Dust, and Extinction [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2013 AbstractThe relationship between DIBs and dust is still unknown. The correlation between reddening and DIB strength means that the DIBs are mixed in with the dust and gas in interstellar clouds. The DIBs are relatively stronger in the diffuse interstellar medium than in dense clouds.

On the Variation of Interstellar Dust Extinction [PDF]
Dust obscures astronomical observations and plays a important role in the evolution of galaxies. Mapping dust in three dimensions not only allows accurate correction of observations but also constrains the evolution of the interstellar medium (ISM). Extinction is the central observable to trace the density and properties of dust, and is widely employed

The nature of interstellar dust as revealed by light scattering [PDF]
Atti della Accademia Peloritana dei Pericolanti : Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali, 2011 Interstellar dust was first identified through the extinction that it causes of optical starlight. Initially, observational and theoretical studies of extinction were made to identify simple ways of removing the effect of extinction.

Extinction by stratified interstellar dust grains
, 2010 We compute the optical properties of spherical dust grains composed of hollow silicate cores coated with two carbonaceous layers, the inner layer of mostly graphitic sp2 carbon and the outer layer of sp3 polymeric amorphous carbon, and explore the consequences on modelled interstellar extinction curves.

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.
