The Infrared Complex Refractive Index and Band Strengths of Coronene Thin Films

The Astrophysical Journal
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) molecules have long been theorized to be present in a multitude of interstellar environments. The radio-frequency detections of specific cyanosubstituted PAH molecules in the Taurus Molecular Cloud have provided new ...

Dust extinction and absorption: the challenge of porous grains

, 2005
In many models of dusty objects in space the grains are assumed to be composite or fluffy. However, the computation of the optical properties of such particles is still a very difficult problem.

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.

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 ...

Circumstellar dust [PDF]

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 ...

Expanded Sample of Small Magellanic Cloud Ultraviolet Dust Extinction Curves: Correlations between the 2175 Å Bump, q PAH, Ultraviolet Extinction Shape, and N(H i)/A(V)

The Astrophysical Journal
The Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) shows a large variation in ultraviolet (UV) dust extinction curves, ranging from Milky Way (MW) like to significantly steeper curves with no detectable 2175 Å bump.

Stellar ultraviolet colors and interstellar extinction [PDF]

A sample of celescope results is studied. Most of the sample stars belong to the Orion and Vela regions. Stars with visual excess E(B-V) less than 0.05 are selected in order to derive relationships of intrinsic color index versus spectral type.
