Spatial Variations of Dust Opacity and Grain Growth in Dark Clouds: L1689, L1709, and L1712
The far-infrared (FIR) opacity of dust in dark clouds within the Ophiuchus molecular cloud is investigated through multiwavelength infrared observations from UKIDSS, Spitzer, and Herschel. Employing the infrared color excess technique with both near-infrared and mid-infrared photometric data, a high...
