Abstract
We present results obtained with the PRONAOS balloon-borne experiment on interstellar dust. In particular, the submillimeter / millimeter spectral index is found to vary between roughly 1 and 2.5 on small scales (3.5′ resolution). This could have implications for component separation in Cosmic Microwave Background maps.
