SPICY 30021: an embedded bona fide FUor with a mid-infrared precursor

Zhen Guo, Calum Morris, Vitor Fermiano +37

Unstable mass accretion in young stellar objects (YSOs) often leads to observable outbursts, which play a key role in stellar mass assembly during pre-main-sequence evolution. The…

Unresolved triples in the open cluster NGC 2437 (M 46) confirmed by the KMOS VVVX-GalCen Spectroscopic Survey

D. Minniti, T. Palma, C. O. Obasi +31

Recent optical and near-IR photometric databases like Gaia data release 3 (DR3) and the VISTA Variables in the Vía Láctea eXtended (VVVX) ESO public survey allow the exploration of…

Unresolved triple systems in the aged open cluster Trumpler 19: Discovery, confirmation, and implications

D. Minniti, R. K. Saito, V. D. Ivanov +31

It is difficult to identify unresolved triple and higher-order systems beyond the solar vicinity. Star clusters yield controlled environments with known physical parameters, provid…

The VISTA Variables in the Vía Láctea eXtended (VVVX) ESO public survey: Completion of the observations and legacy

R. K. Saito, M. Hempel, J. Alonso-García +143

The ESO public survey VISTA Variables in the Vía Láctea (VVV) surveyed the inner Galactic bulge and the adjacent southern Galactic disk from . Upon its conclusion, the c…

Enlightening the Universe behind the Milky Way Bulge

Fernanda Duplancic, Sol Alonso, Georgina Coldwell +7

Context. The location of the Solar System constrains the detection of extragalactic sources beyond the Milky Way(MW) plane. The optical observations are hampered in the so--called…

Unveiling a new structure behind the Milky Way

Daniela Galdeano, Gabriel A. Ferrero, Georgina Coldwell +4

Context. The ZOA does not allow clear optical observations of extragalactic sources behind the Milky Way due to the meaningful extinction of the optical emission of these objects.…

A deep near-infrared view of the Ophiuchus galaxy cluster

D. Galdeano, G. Coldwell, F. Duplancic +8

Context: The Ophiuchus cluster of galaxies, located at low latitudes in the direction of the Galactic bulge, has been relatively poorly studied in comparison with other rich galaxy…

Overdensity of VVV galaxies behind the Galactic bulge

Daniela Galdeano, Luis Pereyra, Fernanda Duplancic +7

We studied a region of 1.636 square degrees corresponding to the VVV tile . Using SExtractor, we analysed photometric data generating a catalogue of extended sources in this…

The Global Environment of Small Galaxy Systems

Fernanda Duplancic, Federico Dávila-Kurbán, Georgina V. Coldwell +2

The main goal of this work is to investigate the influence of environment at different scales on the properties of galaxies in systems with a low number of members. To this end we…
