Description
This pull request updates the resource files for the optical properties of the dust mixes in the ExtraDust resource pack, i.e. BegemannPorousAlumina, DorschnerOlivine, and HofmeisterPericlase, typically used for AGN models.
The Qabs and Qsca values for each dust species for each grain size were extrapolated to wavelengths from 1e-3 to 1e3
microns following a rough approximation of the behavior of the Qabs and Qsca. Previously the optical properties did not
cover this wavelength range and the outer regions were filled by SKIRT with a constant value.
Motivation
Allow simulations to use the more extended wavelength range.
Context
These data were prepared and provided by @oura71 .
