Monte Carlo Predictions of Far-Infrared Emission from Spiral Galaxies
S. Bianchi, J. I. Davies, P. B. Alton
We present simulations of Far Infrared (FIR) emission by dust in spiral galaxies, based on the Monte Carlo radiative transfer code of Bianchi, Ferrara & Giovanardi (1996). The radi…
SCUBA observations of NGC 6946
S. Bianchi, J. Davies, P. Alton +2
We present sub-millimetre images of the spiral galaxy NGC 6946 at 450 and 850 um. The observations have been carried out using the scan/map imaging mode of the Sub-millimetre Commo…
ISO observations of spirals: modelling the FIR emission
Simone Bianchi, Paul B. Alton, Jonathan I. Davies
ISO observations at 200 micron have modified our view of the dust component in spiral galaxies. For a sample of seven resolved spirals we have retrieved a mean temperature of 20K,…
Dust Emissivity in the Far-Infrared
Simone Bianchi, Jonathan I. Davies, Paul B. Alton
We have derived the dust emissivity in the Far-Infrared (FIR) using data available in the literature. We use two wavelength dependences derived from spectra of Galactic FIR emissio…
