Optische Flächenhelligkeit der Dunkelwolke Lynds 1642
Abstract
Surface photometry of L1642 has been performed in order to determine the intensity of the extragalactic light. The observations and reductions are briefly described, and the results for the distribution and extension of the scattered light of L1642 and of that light's intensity and spectral distribution are discussed. An extragalactic light intensity of about 5-10 x 10 to the -9th erg/s/sq cm/sterad/A is obtained.
