Discovery of new globular clusters in the Sagittarius dwarf galaxy
D. Minniti, V. Ripepi, J. G. Fernández-Trincado +14
Context. Globular clusters (GCs) are witnesses of the past accretion events onto the Milky Way (MW). In particular, the GCs of the Sagittarius (Sgr) dwarf galaxy are important prob…
VVVX-Gaia Discovery of a Low Luminosity Globular Cluster in the Milky Way Disk
E. R. Garro, D. Minniti, M. Gómez +20
Milky Way globular clusters (MW GCs) are difficult to identify at low Galactic latitudes because of high differential extinction and heavy star crowding. The new deep near-IR image…
VVV Survey Microlensing: the Galactic Latitude Dependence
Maria Gabriela Navarro, Dante Minniti, Joyce Pullen +1
We search for microlensing events in fields along the Galactic minor axis, ranging from the Galactic center to -3.7<b< 3.9 deg., using the VVV survey near-IR photometry. The new se…
New Candidate Planetary Nebulae in Galactic Globular Clusters from the VVV Survey
Dante Minniti, Bruno Dias, Matías Gómez +2
Only four globular cluster planetary nebulae (GCPN) are known so far in the Milky Way. About 50 new globular clusters have been recently discovered towards the Galactic bulge. We p…
VVV Survey Microlensing: Catalog of Best and Forsaken Events
Maria Gabriela Navarro, Rodrigo Contreras Ramos, Dante Minniti +3
We search for microlensing events in the zero-latitude area of the Galactic Bulge using the VVV Survey near-IR data. We have discovered a total sample of events within an a…
Microlensing events in the Galactic bulge
Maria Gabriela Navarro, Dante Minniti, Roberto Capuzzo-Dolcetta +2
For the first time we detected microlensing events at zero latitude in the Galactic bulge using the VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea Survey (VVV) data. We have discovered a total…
