چکیده
We present a model of the interaction of interstellar dust grains with a stellar environment, that predicts the distribution of interstellar dust grains in the size range between 0.1 µm and 1 µm around a star for the whole stellar cycle. Comparisons of the model results with in-situ dust measurements by the Ulysses spacecraft in the Solar System validate the model. We show that in the case of the Sun, interstellar dust grains can produce large regions of infrared emission that can be confused with a circumsolar dust disk when observed from afar. Our model can determine the shape of interstellar dust concentrations close to nearby stars, if we have information on the relative velocty of the stars with respect to the surrounding interstellar medium, and the properties of the stellar wind.

A handful of new experiments aimed at measuring the asyet-undetected polarization of the cosmic background radiation (CBR) are described, with somewhat more detail given for three experiments with which the authors are associated.

We use observations from the CASTLES survey of gravita-tional lenses to study extinction in 23 lens galaxies with 0 < z l < 1. The median differential extinction between lensed images is ∆E(B −V) = 0.05 mag, and the directly measured extinctions agree with the amount needed to explain the differences between the statistics of radio and (optical) quasar lens surveys. We also measure the first ex...
