SpeX near-infrared spectroscopic extinction curves in the Milky Way

Marjorie Decleir, Karl D. Gordon, Jennifer E. Andrews +7

Interstellar dust extinction curves provide valuable information about dust properties, including the composition and size of the dust grains, and are essential to correct observat…

Milky Way Mid-Infrared Spitzer Spectroscopic Extinction Curves: Continuum and Silicate Features

Karl D. Gordon, Karl A. Misselt, Jeroen Bouwman +7

We measured the mid-infrared (MIR) extinction using Spitzer photometry and spectroscopy (3.6--37 micron) for a sample of Milky Way sightlines (mostly) having measured ultraviolet e…

Chemical and Physical Conditions in Molecular Cloud Core DC 000.4-19.5 (SL42) in Corona Australis

E. E. Hardegree-Ullman, J. Harju, M. Juvela +3

Chemical reactions in starless molecular clouds are heavily dependent on interactions between gas phase material and solid phase dust and ices. We have observed the abundance and d…

Ices in the Quiescent IC 5146 Dense Cloud

J. E. Chiar, Y. J. Pendleton, L. J. Allamandola +14

This paper presents spectra in the 2 to 20 micron range of quiescent cloud material located in the IC 5146 cloud complex. The spectra were obtained with NASA's Infrared Telescope F…

Oxygen Depletion in the Interstellar Medium: Implications for Grain Models and the Distribution of Elemental Oxygen

D. C. B. Whittet

This paper assesses the implications of a recent discovery (Jenkins 2009) that atomic oxygen is being depleted from diffuse interstellar gas at a rate that cannot be accounted for…
