Scientific paper
The observations on the field of infrared astronomy of the interstellar dust are reviewed. The focus is on the observed infrared spectral features detected in astronomical sources mentioning photometric studies, which yield information on the dust temperature. Infrared spectroscopy of dust involving stardust, diffuse interstellar medium and molecular clouds are discussed. Through the identification of spectral features, and comparison with laboratory data of known compounds, infrared spectroscopy can reveal the composition of dust species, but does not readily yield information on particle size.
