DustKING - the story continues: dust attenuation in NGC628
  Dust attenuation is a crucial but highly uncertain parameter that hampers the
determination of intrinsic galaxy properties, such as stellar masses, star
formation rates and star formation histories. The shape of the dust attenuation
law is not expected to be uniform between galaxies, nor within a galaxy. Our
DustKING project was introduced at the first BINA workshop in 2016 and aims to
study the variations of dust attenuation curves in nearby galaxies. At the
second BINA workshop in 2018, I presented the results of our pilot study for
the spiral galaxy NGC628. We find that the average attenuation law of this
galaxy is characterised by a MW-like bump and a steep UV slope. Furthermore, we
observe intriguing variations within the galaxy, with regions of high $A_V$
exhibiting a shallower attenuation curve. Finally, we discuss how our work
might benefit from data taken with the UVIT from the Indian AstroSat mission.
