RELATION BETWEEN ELEMENT DEPLETION AND INTERSTELLAR REDDENING IN THE DIRECTION OF OB STARS

, 1992
We have studied the interstellar column densities of AlII, SiII, SII, FeII, NiII, and ZnII in the direction of 18 O- and 6 B-type stars so as to improve the relations of element depletions with E(B-V), and to look for other possible relations with two ...

214 -- Using Red Giant Spectroscopy to Compute the Interstellar Reddening of Open Cluster NGC 2194 [PDF]

, 2022
The colossal distances between planet Earth and astronomical objects significantly affects the starlight which our telescopes receive. It is necessary that we first quantify and account for these influences before carrying out scientific research in ...

PLATO as it is: A legacy mission for Galactic archaeology

Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 338, Issue 6, Page 644-661, July 2017., 2017
Deciphering the assembly history of the Milky Way is a formidable task, which becomes possible only if one can produce high‐resolution chrono‐chemo‐kinematical maps of the Galaxy. Data from large‐scale astrometric and spectroscopic surveys will soon provide us with a well‐defined view of the current chemo‐kinematical structure of the Milky Way, but it ...

UGC 7639: A Dwarf Galaxy in the Canes Venatici I Cloud

Advances in Astronomy, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
We want to get insight into the formation mechanism and the evolution of UGC 7639, a dwarf galaxy in the Canes Venatici I Cloud (CVnIC). We used archival multiwavelength data to constrain its global properties. Ultraviolet images show that UGC 7639 inner regions are composed mostly by young stellar populations.

The Natural Science Underlying Big History

The Scientific World Journal, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
Nature’s many varied complex systems—including galaxies, stars, planets, life, and society—are islands of order within the increasingly disordered Universe. All organized systems are subject to physical, biological, or cultural evolution, which together comprise the grander interdisciplinary subject of cosmic evolution.

Observations of Interstellar Reddening in Cygnus and Perseus [PDF]

International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1965
The Object of the Edinburgh Spectrophotometry Survey is to determine the interstellar extinction law as precisely as possible and to search for intrinsic variations in it. The observations have been extended to early type stars up to a limiting magnitude of 11ṃ0 in regions extending from lII = 50° to lII = 200°.

JWST Imaging of the Closest Globular Clusters—VI. The Lowest‐Mass Objects in M 4 and the Galactic Bulge

Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 346, Issue 9, November 2025.
ABSTRACT We present James Webb Space Telescope observations of M 4—the closest globular cluster—that probe the lower Main Sequence down to the hydrogen‐burning limit. The unveiled stellar sequence reaches much fainter luminosities than previously possible, revealing a few extremely red objects that are consistent with brown dwarfs as cool as Teff∼1000K$

CCD SDSS gr Photometry of Poorly Studied Star Clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud

International Scholarly Research Notices, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
We present for the first time CCD SDSS gr photometry, obtained at the Gemini South telescope with the GMOS attached, of stars in the field of the poorly studied star clusters NGC1768, HS 85, SL 676, NGC2107, NGC2190, and SL 866, which are distributed in the main body of the Large Magellanic Cloud.

Preliminary results on interstellar reddening as deduced from filter photometry [PDF]

, 1972
Filter photometry has been used to derive the interstellar reddening law from stars through the study of a single spectral type, B0. The deficiency in the far ultraviolet flux of a supergiant relative to a main sequence star is compared with the ...

The Optical to Infrared 0.6–5.3 μm Dust Extinction Law of the Milky Way with JWST NIRSpec: Westerlund 2

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
The interstellar extinction law is important for interpreting observations and inferring the properties of interstellar dust grains. Based on the 993 prism/CLEAR spectra from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), we investigate the 0.6–5.3 μ m ...
