Broadband UBVRI Photometry of Horizontal-Branch and Metal-Poor Candidates from the HK and Hamburg/ESO Surveys. I
Timothy C. Beers, Chris Flynn, Silvia Rossi +17
We report broadband UBV and/or BVRI CCD photometry for a total of 1857 stars in the thick-disk and halo populations of the Galaxy. The majority of our targets were selected as cand…
The search for the origin of the Local Bubble redivivus
B. Fuchs, D. Breitschwerdt, M. A. de Avillez +2
We present a new unbiased search and analysis of all B stars in the solar neighbourhood (within a volume of 400 pc diameter) using the Arivel data base to track down the remains of…
On the mass-to-light ratio of the local Galactic disc and the optical luminosity of the Galaxy
Chris Flynn, Johan Holmberg, Laura Portinari +2
We measure the volume luminosity density and surface luminosity density generated by the Galactic disc, using accurate data on the local luminosity function and the disc's vertical…
MACHOs in dark matter haloes
Janne Holopainen, Chris Flynn, Alexander Knebe +2
Using eight dark matter haloes extracted from fully-self consistent cosmological N-body simulations, we perform microlensing experiments. A hypothetical observer is placed at a dis…
