The number of spectral domains on which a spectral index, β, may be defined depends on the samples. In addition, for a given sample, the spectral domains may vary with the grain temperature. When two values of the wavelength separating the spectral domains are given, the first one corresponds to the highest temperature (300 K) and the second one to the lowest temperature (10 K), see text.
