Radiative Compression of Dense Cores in the Pillars of Creation as Revealed by JWST Extinction Mapping

Jun Li, Bingqiu Chen, He Zhao +2

The Pillars of Creation in M16 represent an iconic star-forming region where stellar feedback shapes molecular cloud evolution. We present a detailed investigation of dust extincti…

Astrometric mass measurement of compact companions in binary systems with Gaia

Yilun Wang, Shilong Liao, Nicola Giacobbo +3

For binary systems with an unseen primary and a luminous secondary, the astrometric wobble of the secondary could be used to study the primary. With Gaia, it is possible to measure…

Dust Extinction Law in Nearby Star-Resolved Galaxies. II. M33 Traced by Supergiants

Yuxi Wang, Jian Gao, Yi Ren +1

The dust extinction curves toward individual sight lines in M33 are derived for the first time with a sample of reddened O-type and B-type supergiants obtained from the LGGS. The o…

Dust Extinction Law in Nearby Star-Resolved Galaxies. I. M31 Traced by Supergiants

Yuxi Wang, Jian Gao, Yi Ren

The dust extinction laws and dust properties in M31 are explored with a sample of reddened O-type and B-type supergiants obtained from the LGGS. The observed spectral energy distri…

Distances to the Supernova Remnants in the Inner Disk

Shu Wang, Chengyu Zhang, Biwei Jiang +5

Distance measurements of supernova remnants (SNRs) are essential and important. Accurate estimates of physical size, dust masses, and some other properties of SNRs depend criticall…

Dust Extinction towards the Type Ia Supernova 2012cu in NGC 4772

Weijia Gao, Ruining Zhao, Jian Gao +2

Using photometric and spectroscopic data of Supernova (SN) 2012cu, a fairly reddened type Ia supernova, we derived its color excess curves and probed the dust extinction in its hos…

A Precise Determination of the Mid-Infrared Interstellar Extinction Law Based on the APOGEE Spectroscopic Survey

Mengyao Xue, Biwei Jiang, Jian Gao +3

A precise measure of the mid-infrared interstellar extinction law is crucial to the investigation of the properties of interstellar dust, especially of the grains in the large size…

Dust in the Local Group

Aigen Li, Shu Wang, Jian Gao +1

How dust absorbs and scatters starlight as a function of wavelength (known as the interstellar extinction curve) is crucial for correcting for the effects of dust extinction in inf…

The Mid-Infrared Extinction Law in the Large Magellanic Cloud

Jian Gao, B. W. Jiang, Aigen Li +1

Based on the photometric data from the Spitzer/SAGE survey and with red giants as the extinction tracers, the mid-infrared (MIR) extinction laws in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC)…

Modeling the Infrared Extinction toward the Galactic Center

Jian Gao, Aigen Li, B. W. Jiang

We model the ~1--19$\mum$ infrared (IR) extinction curve toward the Galactic Center (GC) in terms of the standard silicate-graphite interstellar dust model. The grains are taken to…

The Mid-Infrared Extinction Law and its Variation in the Coalsack Nebula

Shu Wang, Jian Gao, B. W. Jiang +2

In recent years the wavelength dependence of interstellar extinction from the ultraviolet (UV), optical, through the near- and mid-infrared (IR) has been studied extensively. Altho…

Mid-Infrared Extinction and its Variation with Galactic Longitude

Jian Gao, B. W. Jiang, A. Li

Based on the data obtained from the Spitzer/GLIPMSE Legacy Program and the 2MASS project, we derive the extinction in the four IRAC bands, [3.6], [4.5], [5.8] and [8.0] micron, rel…
