Models of Dust Scattered Radiation in the Milky Way

Photons from hot stars are scattered by interstellar dust grains to give rise to the diffuse Galactic light (DGL) in the UV. I have modeled the dust scattered light in the two GALEX bands (FUV: 152 nm  and NUV: 236 nm) with a Monte Carlo program (available from ascl:1512.012). The spectral type, coordinates and distance of the stars are from the Hipparcos catalog and are modeled using Castelli-Kurucz templates. The dust distribution is taken from Green et al. (2019). The scattering phase function is given by the Henyey-Greenstein function.

This data set includes 10 zipped files in each of the two GALEX bands with another at 1100 A. Each file contains the results of the model runs for a range of albedo (0.1 - 0.9) at a single value of g. The models and the data are described in https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/#abs/2016arXiv160100430M/abstract.

Added required dust files and program source code.
