The simulations are compared to observations of dust extinction in the optical and emission in the FIR, with the aim of deriving the amount of interstellar grains, their distribution and the internal extinction in a galaxy. I discuss the main, puzzling, result of this comparison: more dust is needed to explain thermal emission than what is inferred from extinction studies. | Conference Name: | THE SPECTRAL ENERGY DISTRIBUTIONS OF GAS-RICH GALAXIES: Confronting Models with Data; International Workshop | Conference Place: | Heidelberg, Germany | Conference Date: | October 4-8, 2004 | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12386/33066 | URL: | https://api.elsevier.com/content/abstract/scopus_id/33748568098 https://aip.scitation.org/doi/pdf/10.1063/1.1913928 |
