Empirical Temperature- and Extinction-dependent Extinction Coefficients for the GALEX, Pan-STARRS 1, Gaia, SDSS, 2MASS, and WISE Passbands

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2022
We have obtained accurate dust reddening from the far-ultraviolet to the mid-infrared for up to 5 million stars by the star-pair algorithm based on LAMOST stellar parameters along with Galaxy Evolution Explorer, Pan-STARRS 1, Gaia, Sloan Digital Sky ...

An R V Map of the Milky Way Revealed by LAMOST

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
The total-to-selective extinction ratio, R _V , is a key parameter for tracing the properties of interstellar dust, as it directly determines the variation of the extinction curve with wavelength.

Modeling galactic extinction

open access: yesAtti della Accademia Peloritana dei Pericolanti : Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali, 2011
We present a model for interstellar extinction dust, in which we assume a bimodal distribution of extinction carriers, a dispersion of core-mantle grains, supplemented by a collection of PAHs in free molecular form.

Measurements of Interstellar Extinction [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1989
The results of interstellar extinction measurements from the near IR to the far-UV are reviewed. The average interstellar extinction curve for the diffuse cloud medium exhibits a nearly linear rise (in 1/λ) from 1 μm−1 to the 2.25 μm−1 “knee” in extinction where the slope changes.

Graphite and Interstellar Extinction [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1965
The Theory That Graphite Particles could be responsible for interstellar extinction is presented in references 1 and 2, and this paper will present evidence that further supports this contention. The complex dielectric constant (m = n(l — ik) for graphite has been measured as a function of energy by the authors of reference 3, and the optical constants

Interstellar extinction from photometric surveys: application to four high-latitude areas

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2018
Information on interstellar extinction and dust properties may be obtained from modern large photometric surveys data. Virtual Observatory facilities allow users to make a fast and correct cross-identification of objects from various surveys. It yields a

Time-series surveys and pulsating stars: The near-infrared perspective

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
The purpose of this review is to discuss the advantages and problems of nearinfrared surveys in observing pulsating stars in the Milky Way. One of the advantages of near-infrared surveys, when compared to optical counterparts, is that the interstellar ...

Interstellar Extinction and Elemental Abundances [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2021
Abstract Elements in the interstellar medium (ISM) exist in the form of gas or dust. The interstellar extinction and elemental abundances provide crucial constraints on the composition, size, and quantity of interstellar dust. Most of the extinction modeling efforts have assumed the total (gas and dust) abundances of the dust-forming ...

The nature of interstellar dust as revealed by light scattering

open access: yesAtti della Accademia Peloritana dei Pericolanti : Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali, 2011
Interstellar dust was first identified through the extinction that it causes of optical starlight. Initially, observational and theoretical studies of extinction were made to identify simple ways of removing the effect of extinction.
