Probing the Distinct Extinction Law of the Pillars of Creation in M16 with JWST

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Investigating the extinction law in regions of high dust extinction, such as the Pillars of Creation within the M16 region, is crucial for understanding the densest parts of the interstellar medium (ISM).

Emergence of Optical Activity and Surface Morphology Changes in Racemic Amino Acid Films Under Circularly Polarized Lyman‐α Light Irradiation

Chirality, Volume 36, Issue 11, November 2024.
The photoreaction induced by Lyman‐α circularly polarized light (CPL) irradiation in racemic alanine film is more complex than simple preferential photolysis of enantiopure alanine molecules, and formation of larger molecules is observed. Circular networks of order of 100 nm scale are introduced in the alanine film surface by the irradiation.

Dust extinction map of the Galactic plane based on the VVV survey data

, 2022
Dust extinction is one of the most reliable tracers of the gas distribution in the Milky Way. The near-infrared (NIR) Vista Variables in the Via Lactea (VVV) survey enables extinction mapping based on stellar photometry over a large area in the Galactic ...

Analyzing dust particle size and size distribution on extracted particles by SEM and comparing with light scattering techniques

Plasma Processes and Polymers, Volume 21, Issue 8, August 2024.
A comparison is presented between Kinetic Mie Polarimetry and Scanning Electron Microscopy of plasma‐grown amorphous hydrogenated carbon (a‐C:H) particles. The analysis includes particle size distributions, which show that the standard deviation grows linearly, resulting in a constant shape.

The dust budget crisis in high-redshift submillimetre galaxies [PDF]

We apply a chemical evolution model to investigate the sources and evolution of dust in a sample of 26 high-redshift (z > 1) submillimetre galaxies (SMGs) from the literature, with complete photometry from ultraviolet to the submillimetre.

Turbulence in the interstellar medium [PDF]

, 2014
Turbulence is ubiquitous in the insterstellar medium and plays a major role in several processes such as the formation of dense structures and stars, the stability of molecular clouds, the amplification of magnetic fields, and the re-acceleration and ...

The deep eclipses of RW Aur revisited by long‐term photometric and spectroscopic monitoring

Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 345, Issue 4, May 2024.
Abstract RW Aurigae is a young stellar system containing a classical T Tauri star as the primary component. It shows deep, irregular dimmings, first detected in 2010. At the University Observatory Jena, we carried out optical follow‐up observations. We performed multiband (BVRI) photometry of the system with the Cassegrain‐Teleskop‐Kamera II and the ...
