| Description | Regional variations in the interstellar extinction law was examined. The region of Cyg was noted among the areas with abnormal interstellar extinction law (IEL). An attempt was made to study interstellar extinction in the region of the Cep OB4 association. The Vilnius seven color photometric system was used for this purpose. The effective wavelengths and their reciprocals for the Vilnius photometric system are presented. This system was applied for the study of variations in the IEL in four regions of the sky: Cyg, Cep, Per, and Mon (Sudzius, 1974). The results of multicolor photometry were combined with the data of Whiteoak (1966) and detailed interstellar extinction curves were derived for Cyg and for Cep-Per-Mon (average) regions in the wavelengths interval of 3000 to 8000 A (Sudzius, 1974). The obtained IEL for the Cep OB4 association does not match any of the laws determined for other regions of the sky. However, it is very close to Cyg OB2 law in the ultraviolet. Results suggest that Cep OB4 IEL have no very broadband structure (VBS) in the interval of wavenumbers 1.84 to 2.15/micron. |
