Dust is a ubiquitous feature of the cosmos, im**ing directly or indirectly on most fields of
modern astronomy and astrophysics. Dust in the Galactic Environment, Second Edition …

Observations of interstellar linear polarization in the spectral range 0.35–2.2 μ m are
presented for several stars reddened by dust in the Taurus region. Combined with a …

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 …

We have reanalyzed the Large Magellanic Cloud's (LMC) ultraviolet (UV) extinction using
data from the IUE final archive. Our new analysis takes advantage of the improved signal-to …

Moving outward from the Earth, one first observes magnetism in older well-formed stars and
planets, then one observes magnetism in advanced protostellar disk systems, and one ends …

Ultraviolet extinction curves for three early-type stars that sample dust in the Taurus dark
cloud in the vicinity of TMC-1 are analyzed to examine the contribution of internal …

A polarization disk is a characteristic feature of optical and near-infrared (NIR) polarimetric
images of young stellar objects (YSOs) and is regarded as convincing evidence that a dust …

We interpret the relation between the polarizing efficiency P max/E (B− V) and the
wavelength of the maximum polarization λmax observed for 17 objects (including 243 stars) …

Context. We explore the chemistry of the most abundant C-, O-, S-, and N-bearing species in
molecular clouds, in the context of the IRAM 30 m Large Programme Gas phase Elemental …

We present multiwavelength optical linear polarimetric observations of 69 stars towards the
young open cluster Berkeley 59. The observations reveal the presence of three dust layers …
