Large Interstellar Polarisation Survey II. UV/optical study of cloud-to-cloud variations of dust in the diffuse ISM
R. Siebenmorgen, N. V. Voshchinnikov, S. Bagnulo +3
It is well known that the dust properties of the diffuse interstellar medium exhibit variations towards different sight-lines on a large scale. We have investigated the variability…
Constraints on interstellar dust models from extinction and spectro-polarimetry
R. Siebenmorgen, N. V. Voshchinnikov, S. Bagnulo +1
We present polarisation spectra of seven stars in the lines-of-sight towards the Sco OB1 association. Our spectra were obtained within the framework of the Large Interstellar Polar…
Mid-infrared extinction and fresh silicate dust towards the Galactic Center
Nikolai V. Voshchinnikov, Thomas Henning, Vladimir B. Il'in
We interpret the interstellar extinction observed towards the Galactic Center (GC) in the wavelength range $λ= 1 - 20\,\mkm$. Its main feature is the flat extinction at $3 - 8\,\mk…
Large dust grains in the wind of VY Canis Majoris
P. Scicluna, R. Siebenmorgen, R. Wesson +4
Massive stars live short lives, losing large amounts of mass through their stellar wind. Their mass is a key factor determining how and when they explode as supernovae, enriching t…
Polarizing efficiency as a guide of grain growth and interstellar magnetic field properties
N. V. Voshchinnikov, V. B. Il'in, H. K. Das
We interpret the relation between the polarizing efficiency and the wavelength of the maximum polarization observed for 17 objects (including 243 stars…
Optimum Forward Light Scattering by Spherical and Spheroidal Dielectric Nanoparticles with High Refractive Index
Boris S. Luk`yanchuk, Nikolai V. Voshchinnikov, Ramon Paniagua-Dominguez +1
High-refractive index dielectric nanoparticles may exhibit strong directional forward light scattering at visible and near-infrared wavelengths due to interference of simultaneousl…
