We present a quantitative investigation of the optical depth through spiral disks using BVRIJHK colors of 15 highly inclined Sab-Sc spirals and new models for radiative transfer in stellar disks. ... Preliminary comparisons of the observed optical and near-infrared (NIR) color gradients across galaxy dust lanes with predictions from radiative transfer models with slab and spherical shapes underscore the need for these realistic exponential disk geometries. ...

Detecting Bias in a Self-Organizing Map of Galaxy Photometry Data Zach Clayto , Peter Capa , Dan Maste 1 1 r 2 k 2 rs Ohio Wesleyan University, 2Infrared Processing and Analysis Center, California Institute of Technology Abstract High redshift (very distant) galaxy surveys record broad-band photometry for billions of galaxies in order to measure distances in a faster, more cost-effective way than spectroscopy. ... High-redshift galaxies can be identified efficiently in such a mapping. ...

... MATERIAL: astronomical data visualization software like ds9 , IRAF, and the two galaxy images in the V-band and I-band . ... You received images in the V and I-band of an unknown, partially resolved Milky Way dwarf satellite galaxy. Your task is to generate a color-magnitude diagram (CMD) of this stellar system, find out what kind of stellar population it is made of (old, young?) and estimate its distance from the sun using well-known features identified in the CMD. ...
