cds-question@unistra.frgalaxiesinfrared-photometryAlthough it accounts only for a small fraction of the baryonic mass, dust has a profound impact on the physical processes at play in galaxies. Thus, to understand the evolution of galaxies, it is essential not only to characterize dust properties per se, but also in relation to global galaxy properties. To do so, we derive the dust properties of galaxies in a volume limited, K-band selected sample, the Herschel Reference Survey (HRS). We gather infrared photometric data from 8{mu}m to 500{mu}m from Spitzer, WISE, IRAS, and Herschel for all of the HRS galaxies. Draine & Li (2007ApJ...663..866D) models are fit to the data from which the stellar contribution has been carefully removed. We find that our photometric coverage is sufficient to constrain all of the parameters of the Draine & Li models and that a strong constraint on the 20-60{mu}m range is mandatory to estimate the relative contribution of the photo-dissociation regions to the infrared spectral energy distribution (SED). The SED models tend to systematically underestimate the observed 500{mu}m flux densities, especially for low-mass systems. We provide the output parameters for all of the galaxies, i.e., the minimum intensity of the interstellar radiation field, the fraction of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH), the relative contribution of PDR and evolved stellar population to the dust heating, the dust mass, and the infrared luminosity. For a subsample of gas-rich galaxies, we analyze the relations between these parameters and the main integrated properties of galaxies, such as stellar mass, star formation rate, infrared luminosity, metallicity, H{alpha} and H-band surface brightness, and the far-ultraviolet attenuation. A good correlation between the fraction of PAH and the metallicity is found, implying a weakening of the PAH emission in galaxies with low metallicities and, thus, low stellar masses. The intensity of the diffuse interstellar radiation field and the H-band and H{alpha} surface brightnesses are correlated, suggesting that the diffuse dust component is heated by both the young stars in star-forming regions and the diffuse evolved population. We use these results to provide a new set of infrared templates calibrated with Herschel observations on nearby galaxies and a mean SED template to provide the z=0 reference for cosmological studies. For the same purpose, we place our sample on the SFR-M_*_ diagram. The templates are compared to the most popular infrared SED libraries, enlightening a large discrepancy between all of them in the 20-100{mu}m range.2014A&A...565A.128Chttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/A+A/565/A128CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toJ/PASP/122/261 : Herschel Reference Survey Sample (Boselli+, 2010)https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/565/A128https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/565/A128http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/565/A128https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/565/A128https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/565/A128http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/565/A128GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/A+A/565/A128/galaxies (Mid-IR photometry of the HRS galaxies (table A2), with stimated parameters for galaxies analyzed in this work (table4) and for galaxies not analyzed here (table A4))https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/565/A128/galaxies?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/565/A128/galaxies?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/565/A128/galaxies?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true154.4152522.80997220.0055555555555555565/6928 6941 6965 6984-6985 6/4439 5124-5125 5152 5164 5172 5181-5183 5190 5196 5198 5200 5241 5244 5247 5332 5336 5342 5440 5629 5966-5967 5975-5978 5981-5982 5999 6001 6011 6037 6082 6087 6103 8235 8320 8330 10454 10475 10592 10632 10672 10684 10845 10990 11010 11074 11435 11789 25575 25581 25599 25775 25788 25790 25966 25980 25997 26055 26065 26068 26072 26088 26090-26091 26119 26128 26139 26148 26157 26161 26166 26174-26175 26210 26214 26222-26223 26260 26265 26271 26285 26294 26301-26303 26307-26309 26311 26313 26316-26318 26320 26323 26330-26331 26336 26338 26340 26343-26344 26346-26347 26349 26351 26361-26363 26365 26377 26388 26432 26472 26528 26530 26537 26542 27079 27130 27603 27606 27653-27654 27716 27718-27719 27724-27725 27727-27728 27730-27731 27734-27736 27738-27739 27741 27743 27750 27757-27758 27761 27763 27772-27773 27814 27823 27841 27853 27855 27857 27889 27907-27909 27913-27918 27922 27926 27931 27934 27944-27945 27947-27949 27955 28032-28033 28035 28037-28039 28041 28054 28056 28123 28126 28141-28142 28162 28170 28191 28201 28208 28213 28220-28221 28234 28258 28264 28294 28299-28300 28304 28348 28404 28416 28491 28508 28529 28538 28643 286518.157980699529898e-21 2.9851966310207673e-20https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/A+A/565/A128?format=asciiInfrareddefaultJ/A+A/565/A128/galaxiesMid-IR photometry of the HRS galaxies (table A2), with stimated parameters for galaxies analyzed in this work (table4) and for galaxies not analyzed here (table A4)recnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
