Условие

At optical wavelengths, star formation is strongly obscured by dust. Studies of protoplanetary disks therefore usually observe at infrared or sub-milimeter wavelengths. Why are these observations less strongly affected by interstellar dust?

A. Higher angular resolution from interferometers averages out dust effects

B. The thermal emission of interstellar dust is comparatively less at longer wavelengths

C. Dust grains scatter shorter wavelengths more efficiently than longer wavelengths

D. The optical obscuration is a result of atomic transitions not present at longer wavelengths

E. None of the above
