Currently, we have access to large variety of physical information based on the emission in the infrared (IR) bands, radiation that in the case of galaxies mostly comes from dust grains.enCC BY-NC-ND 4.0 DEED Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 4.0 InternationalAstronomía InfrarrojaGalaxiasPolvo CósmicoFotometría Astronómica.Resolving the cosmic infrared background with the Herschel Space Observatory and dust destruction by radio jets.Tesis
