Infrared cirrus - New components of the extended infrared emission
Abstract
Extended sources of far-infrared emission superposed on the zodiacal and galactic backgrounds are found at high galactic latitudes and near the ecliptic plane. Clouds of interstellar dust at color temperatures as high as 35K account for much of this complex structure, but the relationship to H I column density is not simple. Other features of the extended emission show the existence of warm structures within the solar system. Three bands of dust clouds at temperatures of 150 - 200K appear within 10° on both sides of the ecliptic plane. Their ecliptic latitudes and derived distances suggest that they are associated with the main asteroid belt. A third component of the 100 μm cirrus, poorly correlated with H I, may represent cold material in the outer solar system or a new component of the interstellar medium.

“As the peak of this dust emission falls in the far infrared due to its low temperature (Low et al. 1984; Veneziani et al. 2010), we examined 100 micron images from the Infrared Astronomical Satellite (IRAS; Neugebauer et al. 1984) Sky Survey Atlas1.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
