消光曲线

常用消光曲线

• simple power-law $\propto \lambda ^{-1}$
• the Milky Way (MW) extinction curve (with a prominent bump at 2175)
• the featureless Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) extinction curve which steeply rises with inverse wavelength from near-IR to far-UV
• the LargeMagellanic Cloud (LMC) curve being intermediate between that of the MW and the SMC;
• the featureless “Calzetti” attenuation law for the dust in local starburst galaxies (Calzetti et al. 1994);
• the relatively flat “Maiolino” extinction law for the dust in the dense circumnuclear region of AGNs (Maiolino et al. 2001) where the dust size distribution is skewed toward large grains

类星体中的尘埃

• 一种认为和SMC差不多 Hopkins et al. (2004)
• 一种认为比较平 (Czerny et al. 2004; Gaskell et al. 2004).
