We present a large, homogeneous catalogue of molecular clouds within 4kpc from the Sun at low Galactic latitudes (|b|<10{deg}) with unprecedented accurate distance...

We obtain distances to 383 Galactic Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars from Gaia DR2 parallaxes and Bayesian methods, with a prior based on HII regions and dust extinction. Distances agree...

a fast python package for mie scattering and backscattering calculations of single particles, coated particles and log-normal distributed particles

Using a Bayesian technology, we derived distances and extinctions for over 100000 red giant stars observed by the Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (APOGEE)...

We present a new atmospheric extinction curve for Mauna Kea spanning 3200-9700{AA}. It is the most comprehensive to date, being based on some 4285 standard star spectra obtained...

Here we release the first version of the atlas and catalog of dark clouds derived by using the optical database Digitized Sky Survey I (DSS). Applying a traditional star-count...

This catalogue, developed for a new study of the interstellar medium in the solar vicinity, contains estimations of extinction and distances from reliable UBV data and MK types;...

We present a method for obtaining the likelihood function of distance and extinction to a star given its photometry. The other properties of the star (its mass, age, metallicity...

Astrometric surveys provide the opportunity to measure the absolute magnitudes of large numbers of stars, but only if the individual line-of-sight extinctions are known....

The principle of the background-eliminated extinction-parallax (BEEP) method is examining the extinction difference between on- and off-cloud regions to reveal the extinction...

We present a search for RR Lyrae stars using the full six-year data set from the Dark Energy Survey covering ~5000deg^2^ of the southern sky. Using a multistage multivariate...

We present a study of the Trapezium cluster in Orion. We analyze flux- calibrated Very Large Telescope/Multi-Unit Spectroscopic Explorer spectra of 361 stars to simultaneously...

Interstellar extinction in ultraviolet is the most severe in comparison with optical and infrared wavebands and a precise determination plays an important role in correctly...

We report on a survey for H{alpha} bow shock emission around nearby {gamma}-detected energetic pulsars. This survey adds three Balmer-dominated neutron star bow shocks to the...

We study the IR-through-UV wavelength dependence of 328 Galactic interstellar extinction curves affecting normal, near-main-sequence B and late O stars. We derive the curves...

We present near-infrared (JHKL) photometry of 103 southern stars located behind translucent interstellar clouds at high Galactic latitude. Our data are combined with visual...

We present a study of the detailed distribution of extinction in a region of the Taurus dark cloud complex. Our study uses new BVR images of the region, spectral classification...

This catalog contains calculated tables of the energy deposition into dust grains by photons with energies between 10 eV and 1 MeV. The tables give the deposition for 60...

Machine learning has become a popular tool to help us make better decisions and predictions, based on experiences, observations, and analyzing patterns, within a given data set...

Star counts technique is used towards southern dark globular filaments situated in the cloud complexes of Corona Australis and Lupus. Tables and maps of the distribution of...
