Large Interstellar Polarisation Survey. III. Observational constraints on the structure of grains

Ralf Siebenmorgen, Stefano Bagnulo, Lapo Fanciullo +2

Dust in the diffuse interstellar medium remains incompletely understood with regard to the structure, composition, size distribution, and alignment properties of the grains. Joint…

VSTPOL: making the VST a large survey telescope for optical polarimetry

P. Schipani, S. Covino, F. Snik +30

Since the start of operations in 2011, the VLT Survey Telescope (VST) has been one of the most efficient wide-field imagers in the optical bands. However, in the next years the Ver…

Dark Dust and single-cloud sightlines in the ISM

R. Siebenmorgen, J. Krełowski, J. Smoker +2

The precise characteristics of clouds and the nature of dust in the diffuse interstellar medium can only be extracted by inspecting the rare cases of single-cloud sightlines. In ou…

Large Interstellar Polarisation Survey II. UV/optical study of cloud-to-cloud variations of dust in the diffuse ISM

R. Siebenmorgen, N. V. Voshchinnikov, S. Bagnulo +3

It is well known that the dust properties of the diffuse interstellar medium exhibit variations towards different sight-lines on a large scale. We have investigated the variability…

Large Interstellar Polarisation Survey. LIPS I: FORS2 spectropolarimetry in the Southern Hemisphere

S. Bagnulo, N. J. L. Cox, A. Cikota +9

Polarimetric studies of light transmitted through interstellar clouds may give constraints on the properties of the interstellar dust grains. Traditionally, broadband linear polari…
