Interstellar Dust Grain Alignment [PDF]

, 2018
Dust induced polarization is an efficient probe of the interstellar magnetic field. The combination of short wavelength dichroic extinction polarimetry with far-infrared/sub-mm wave emission observations, using modern instruments, allow us to measure the

INTERSTELLAR EXTINCTION MODELLING BY AGGREGATE DUST

International Journal of Advanced Research
Extinction generally ours whenever electromagnetic radiation propagates through a medium containing small particles. The spectral dependence of extinction, or extinction curve, is a function of the composition, structure and size distribution of the particles.

Circumstellar dust [PDF]

, 1986
The presence of dust in the general interstellar medium is inferred from the extinction, polarization, and scattering of starlight; the presence of dark nebulae; interstellar depletions; the observed infrared emission around certain stars and various ...

Observational evidence of dust evolution in galactic extinction curves [PDF]

, 2014
Although structural and optical properties of hydrogenated amorphous carbons are known to respond to varying physical conditions, most conventional extinction models are basically curve fits with modest predictive power.

An Empirical Extinction Curve Revealed by Gaia XP Spectra and LAMOST

The Astrophysical Journal
We present a direct measurement of extinction curves using corrected Gaia XP spectra of the common sources in Gaia DR3 and LAMOST DR7. Our analysis of approximately 370,000 high-quality samples yielded a high-precision average extinction curve for the ...

Extinction of Taurus, Orion, Perseus and California Molecular Clouds Based on the LAMOST, 2MASS, and Gaia Surveys. II. The Extinction Law

The Astronomical Journal
The extinction law from ultraviolet (UV) to infrared (IR; 0.2–24 μ m) is determined by relying on the blue-edge method and color-excess ratios for some nearby molecular clouds, from the low-mass star-forming region to the massive star-forming region. The

Foreground Dust Properties toward the Cluster NGC 7380

The Astronomical Journal
Using starlight polarization, we present the properties of foreground dust toward cluster NGC 7380 embedded in H ii region Sh 2-142. Observations of starlight polarization are carried out in four filters using an imaging polarimeter equipped with a 104 ...

On the Interstellar Extinction Curve toward HD 93222, a Sight Line with an Exceedingly Narrow 2175 Å Extinction Bump

The Astrophysical Journal
The 2175 Å extinction bump, the most prominent spectral feature superimposed on the interstellar extinction curve, is widely seen in the interstellar medium of the Milky Way and external galaxies, both near and far.

Correlations between Dust Extinction Features across All Wavelength Scales: From Diffuse Interstellar Bands to R(V)

The Astrophysical Journal
Understanding variations in the dust extinction curve is imperative for using dust as a tracer of local structure in the interstellar medium, understanding dust chemistry, and performing extinction corrections.
