Far-infrared and submillimeter wavelength surveys have now established the important role
of dusty, star-forming galaxies (DSFGs) in the assembly of stellar mass and the evolution of …

This article gives an overview of the constitution, physical conditions, and observables of
dust in the interstellar medium of nearby galaxies. We first review the macroscopic, spatial …

The variety of star formation histories (SFHs) of z≳ 6 galaxies provides important insights
into early star formation, but has been difficult to systematically quantify. Some observations …

We present and discuss the results of the Herschel Gould Belt survey (HGBS) observations
in an~ 11 deg 2 area of the Aquila molecular cloud complex at d~ 260 pc, imaged with the …

The polarized thermal emission from diffuse Galactic dust is the main foreground present in
measurements of the polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) at …

This paper presents an all-sky model of dust emission from the Planck 353, 545, and 857
GHz, and IRAS 100 μm data. Using a modified blackbody fit to the data we present all-sky …

ABSTRACT Spitzer Space Telescope and Herschel Space Observatory imaging of M31 is
used, with a physical dust model, to construct maps of dust surface density, dust-to-gas ratio …

Context. The efficiency of the different processes responsible for the evolution of interstellar
dust on the scale of a galaxy are, to date, very uncertain, spanning several orders of …

We present an empirical analysis of the properties of dust-continuum emission in a sample
of 17 galaxies in the early Universe (4< z< 8) with well-sampled far-infrared spectral energy …

ABSTRACT A key parameter to the description of all star formation processes is the density
structure of the gas. In this Letter, we make use of probability distribution functions (PDFs) of …
