Modeling the infrared interstellar extinction [PDF]
Planetary and Space Science, 2014 How dust scatters and absorbs starlight in the interstellar medium (ISM) contains important clues about the size and composition of interstellar dust. While the ultraviolet (UV) and visible interstellar extinction is well studied and can be closely fitted in terms of various dust mixtures (e.g., the silicategraphite mixture), the infrared (IR ...

Mid-Infrared Extinction and its Variation with Galactic Longitude [PDF]
, 2009 Based on the data obtained from the Spitzer/GLIPMSE Legacy Program and the 2MASS project, we derive the extinction in the four IRAC bands, [3.6], [4.5], [5.8] and [8.0] micron, relative to the 2MASS Ks band (at 2.16 micron) for 131 GLIPMSE fields along ...

Astrophysics, 2016 This review describes our current understanding of interstellar extinction. This differ substantially from the ideas of the 20th century. With infrared surveys of hundreds of millions of stars over the entire sky, such as 2MASS, SPITZER-IRAC, and WISE, we have looked at the densest and most rarefied regions of the interstellar medium at distances of a ...

The 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 ...

Correcting for the Effects of Interstellar Extinction [PDF]
, 1998 This paper addresses the issue of how best to correct astronomical data for the wavelength-dependent effects of Galactic interstellar extinction. The main general features of extinction from the IR through the UV are reviewed, along with the nature of ...

The incompatibilities between the standard theory of interstellar extinction and observations [PDF]
, 2002 In this paper I review a series of observations which do not agree with the standard interpretation of the extinction curve. The consequence is that light we receive from a reddened star must be contaminated by starlight scattered at very small angular ...

An R V Map of the Milky Way Revealed by LAMOST
The 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.

Atti 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]
Symposium - 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.
