Accurate classification of 28 objects detected in the 39 months Palermo Swift/BAT hard X-ray catalogue
P. Parisi, N. Masetti, E. Jiménez-Bailón +12
Through an optical campaign performed at 4 telescopes located in the northern and the southern hemispheres, plus archival data from two on-line sky surveys, we have obtained optica…
Strengthening the Open Cluster Distance Scale via VVV Photometry
Daniel J. Majaess, David G. Turner, C. Moni Bidin +14
Approximately 14% of known Galactic open clusters possess absolute errors 20% as evaluated from n>3 independent distance estimates, and the statistics for age estimates are markedl…
The first confirmed microlens in a globular cluster
P. Pietrukowicz, D. Minniti, Ph. Jetzer +2
In 2000 July/August a microlensing event occurred at a distance of 2.33 arcmin from the center of the globular cluster M22 (NGC6656), observed against the dense stellar field of th…
The nature of 19 X-ray sources detected with INTEGRAL
N. Masetti, P. Parisi, E. Jimenez-Bailon +14
Since its launch on October 2002, the INTEGRAL satellite has revolutionized our knowledge of the hard X-ray sky thanks to its unprecedented imaging capabilities and source detectio…
Uncloaking globular clusters in the inner Galaxy
Javier Alonso-García, Mario Mateo, Bodhisattva Sen +4
Extensive photometric studies of the globular clusters located towards the center of the Milky Way have been historically neglected. The presence of patchy differential reddening i…
VVV DR1: The First Data Release of the Milky Way Bulge and Southern Plane from the Near-Infrared ESO Public Survey VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea
R. K. Saito, M. Hempel, D. Minniti +107
The ESO Public Survey VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea (VVV) started in 2010. VVV targets 562 sq. deg in the Galactic bulge and an adjacent plane region and is expected to run for…
