Light and colour of cirrus, translucent and opaque dust in the high-latitude area of LDN 1642

K. Mattila, P. Väisänen, K. Lehtinen +2

We have performed a 5-colour surface photometric study of the high-galactic-latitude area of dark nebula LDN 1642. Scattered light properties are presented of diffuse, translucent…
