The Optical to Infrared Extinction Law of Magellanic Clouds Based on Red Supergiants and Classical Cepheids

The Optical to Infrared Extinction Law of Magellanic Clouds Based on Red Supergiants and Classical Cepheids

Precise interstellar dust extinction laws are important to infer the intrinsic properties of reddened objects and correctly interpret observations. In this work, we attempt to measure the optical–infrared extinction laws of the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (LMC and SMC) by using red supergiant...
