Mapping Galactic Dust Emission and Extinction with HI, HII, and H

Yun-Ting Cheng, Brandon S. Hensley, Tzu-Ching Chang +1

Neutral hydrogen (HI) emission closely traces the dust column density at high Galactic latitudes and is thus a powerful tool for predicting dust extinction. However, the relation b…
