Spatial distribution of emission in Unidentified Infrared Bands from Midcourse Space Experiment Survey
Recently the Midcourse Space Experiment (MSX) has surveyed the Galactic plane in mainly four infrared bands between 6 and 25 μm. Two of these bands cover several Unidentified Infrared emission Bands (UIBs). With the aim of extracting the spatial distribution of the UIB emission on a large scale, a scheme has been developed to model the MSX data with emission in the UIBs alongwith the underlying...
متن کاملThe JIRAM ( Jovian InfraRed Auroral Mapper ) Experiment
Introduction: The atmosphere of Jupiter requires multiple techniques at a variety of wavelengths. The present Juno payload is well-suited to a study of the magnetic field and interior structure of Jupiter, as well as its plasma environment, but it will be strongly improved by adding the capability to (a) image and make spectra with high contrast of the Jovian aurora and (b) explore the region b...
متن کاملWarp signatures of the Galactic disk as seen in mid infrared from Midcourse Space Experiment
The gross features in the distribution of stars as well as warm (T > ∼ 100 K) interstellar dust in the Galactic disk have been investigated using the recent mid infrared survey by Midcourse Space Experiment (MSX) at 8, 12, 14 & 21 µm bands. An attempt has been made to determine the location of the Galactic mid-plane at various longitudes, using two approaches : (i) fitting exponential functions...
متن کاملDynamic auroral storms on Saturn as observed by the Hubble Space Telescope
We present observations of significant dynamics within two UV auroral storms observed on Saturn using the Hubble Space Telescope in April/May 2013. Specifically, we discuss bursts of auroral emission observed at the poleward boundary of a solar wind-induced auroral storm, propagating at ∼330% rigid corotation from near ∼01 h LT toward ∼08 h LT. We suggest that these are indicative of ongoing, b...
متن کاملOn Measuring the Infrared Luminosity of Distant Galaxies with the Space Infrared Telescope Facility
The Space Infrared Telescope Facility (SIRTF ) will revolutionize the study of dust–obscured star formation in distant galaxies. Although deep images from the Multiband Imaging Photometer for SIRTF (MIPS) will provide coverage at 24, 70, and 160μm, the bulk of MIPS–detected objects may only have accurate photometry in the shorter wavelength bands due to the confusion noise. Therefore, we have e...
