Interstellar extinction and interstellar polarization: Old and new models [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Quantitative Spectroscopy and Radiative Transfer, 2012
The review contains an analysis of the observed and model curves of the interstellar extinction and polarization. The observations mainly give information on dust in diffuse and translucent interstellar clouds. The features of various dust grain models including spherical/non-spherical, homogeneous/inhomogeneous particles are discussed.

A Model for Interstellar Extinction

Astrophysics and Space Science, 1982
From an analysis of the interstellar extinction we conclude that interstellar grains are of three main kinds: graphite spheres of radii ∼0.02 μm making up ∼10% of the total grain mass, small dielectric spheres of radius about 0.04 μm making up ∼25% of the mass, and hollow dielectric cylinders containing metallic iron with diameters of ∼2/3 μm making up
