Dust Astronomy with a dust telescope

open access: yes, 2004
Dust Astronomy is a new research area investigating the properties of interstellar and interplanetary dust (ISD and IPD). Microsized dust grains are the key to understand formation processes in the universe and of our solar system.

Searching For Interstellar Silicate Dust Grains Using Quasar Absorption Systems In Distant Galaxies

open access: yes, 2016
Interstellar dust is an important component in many physical galactic processes, from star formation to heating and cooling mechanisms. The observed appearance of a galaxy may be altered by its dust content, due to the obscuring and reddening effects of ...
