An analysis is made on the morphology of the sequences, formed by stars distributed along the line of sight in (V,V--I) colour-magnitude diagrams from Baade's Window (l=1.0,b=-3.9). The extinction is due to an absorbing layer with an…

We present mean reddenings toward 3525 RR0 Lyrae stars from the Galactic bulge fields of the MACHO Survey. These reddenings are determined using the color at minimum $V$-band light of the RR0 Lyrae stars themselves and are found to be in…

We determine and tabulate A(lambda)/A(K), the wavelength dependence of interstellar extinction, in the Galactic plane for 1.25um<lambda<8.0um along two lines of sight: l~42 and l~284. The first is a relatively quiescent and unremarkable…

We propose a general method for mapping the extinction in dense molecular clouds using 2MASS near-infrared data. The technique is based on the simultaneous utilization of star counts and colors. These two techniques provide independent…

We propose a new method to investigate the coefficient of the selective extinction, based on two band photometry. This method uses red clump stars as a means to construct the reddening curve. We apply this method to the OGLE color-magnitude…

Interstellar extinction is a major obstacle in determining accurate stellar parameters from photometry near the Galactic disk. It is especially true for globular clusters at low galactic latitudes, which suffer from significant amounts of,…

We have determined the wavelength dependence of the extinction in the near-infrared bands ($J$, $H$, $K_{\mathrm S}$) toward the Galactic center from the VVV (VISTA Variables in the V\'ia L\'actea) aperture photometry of the stars in the…

The extinction law from $0.9$ to $8$ microns in the inner $3\times3$ deg$^2$ of the Milky Way is measured using data from VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea, GLIMPSE and WISE. Absolute extinction ratios are found by requiring that the…

We present the fiducial main sequence stellar locus traced by 10 photometric colors observed by SDSS, 2MASS, and WISE. Median colors are determined using 1,052,793 stars with r-band extinction less than 0.125. We use this locus to measure…

We present measurements of dust reddening using the colors of stars with spectra in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. We measure reddening as the difference between the measured and predicted colors of a star, as derived from stellar parameters…

We present a 127deg x 63deg extinction map of the Anticenter of the Galaxy, based on <J-H> and <H-K> colour excess maps from 2MASS. This 8001 square degree map with a resolution of 4 arcminutes is provided as online material. The colour…

J, H, K, and L photometry for the stars in the central 2' (5 pc) of the Galaxy are presented. Using the observed J-H, H-K, and K-L colors and assumed intrinsic colors, we determine the interstellar extinction at 2.2 mic (A_K) for…

A large-scale three-dimensional model of Galactic extinction is presented based on the Galactic dust distribution model of Drimmel and Spergel (2001). The extinction A_V to any point within the Galactic disk can be quickly deduced using a…

Extinction in ultraviolet is much more significant than in optical or infrared, which can be very informative to precisely measure the extinction and understand the dust properties in the low extinction areas. The high Galactic latitude sky…

The IRAS 100 micron image of the GRB 970228 field shows that the amount of galactic dust in this direction is substantial and varies on arcminute angular scales. From an analysis of the observed surface density of galaxies in the $2.6'…

Three dimensional interstellar extinction maps provide a powerful tool for stellar population analysis. We use data from the VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea survey together with the Besan\c{c}on stellar population synthesis model of the…

Photometry of the Galactic bulge, collected during the OGLE-II microlensing search, indicates high and non-uniform interstellar extinction toward the observed fields. We use the mean I-band magnitude and V-I color of red clump stars as a…

Recent disk observations have revealed multiple indirect signatures of forming gas giant planets, but high-contrast imaging has rarely confirmed the presence of the suspected perturbers. Here, we exploit a unique opportunity provided by the…

The detailed study of the Galactic bulge stellar population necessarily requires an accurate representation of the interstellar extinction particularly toward the Galactic plane and center, where the severe and differential reddening is…

Large spectroscopic surveys have enabled in the recent years the computation of three-dimensional interstellar extinction maps thanks to accurate stellar atmospheric parameters and line-of-sight distances. Such maps are complementary to 3D…
