A likely detection of a local interplanetary dust cloud passing near the Earth in the AKARI mid-infrared all-sky map
D. Ishihara, T. Kondo, H. Kaneda +8
Context. We are creating the AKARI mid-infrared all-sky diffuse maps. Through a foreground removal of the zodiacal emission, we serendipitously detected a bright residual component…

Size Dependence of Dust Distribution around the Earth Orbit
Takahiro Ueda, Hiroshi Kobayashi, Taku Takeuchi +3
In the Solar System, interplanetary dust particles (IDPs) originating mainly from asteroid collisions and cometary activities drift to the Earth orbit due to the Poynting-Robertson…

A quality check of the mid-infrared all-sky diffuse map toward the massive star-forming regions NGC 6334 and NGC 6357
Hidetoshi Sano, Tomoya Amatsutsu, Toru Kondo +7
We present a comparative study of CO and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) emission toward a region including the massive star-forming regions of NGC 6334 and NGC 6357. We use…
