Physical Processes in the Large Scale ISM from Dust Observations
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 May 2016
Abstract
Over the last two decades observations of dust emission in the infrared have played an important role in the development of research on the interstellar medium. The study of the spectral energy distribution has led to the discovery of small dust particles including the large aromatic molecules (PAHs). Infrared sky images have been used to study the structure of interstellar matter, the evolution of dust within the interstellar medium and the star formation efficiency of interstellar clouds.
