Insights on the Milky Way bulge formation from the correlations between kinematics and metallicity

C. Babusiaux, A. Gomez, V. Hill +9

Two main scenarios for the formation of the Galactic bulge are invoked, the first one through gravitational collapse or hierarchical merging of subclumps, the second through secula…

Kinematics at the Edge of the Galactic Bulge: Evidence for Cylindrical Rotation

Christian D. Howard, R. Michael Rich, Will Clarkson +9

We present new results from BRAVA, a large scale radial velocity survey of the Galactic bulge, using M giant stars selected from the Two Micron All Sky Survey catalogue as targets…

The large scale dust lanes of the Galactic bar

D. J. Marshall, R. Fux, A. C. Robin +1

(abridged) By comparing the distribution of dust and gas in the central regions of the Galaxy, we aim to obtain new insights into the properties of the offset dust lanes leading th…

Dark matter in the inner parts of barred galaxies: The data

I. Perez, I. Marquez, K. Freeman +1

This paper presents surface photometry (B,V, I, J, H, K) and H_alpha rotation curves of 27 isolated spiral galaxies. The final goal is to obtain the mass distribution of a sample o…

Detecting cold H2 globules in the outer Galactic disc by microlensing towards the Maffei 1 elliptical

R. Fux

A serious candidate for dark matter in spiral galaxies are cold molecular hydrogen globules with a condensed central core and a disc-like space distribution probably similar to tha…

Gas flow and dark matter in the inner parts of early-type barred galaxies

I. Pérez, R. Fux, K. Freeman

This paper presents the dynamical simulations run in the potential derived from the light distribution of 5 late-type barred spiral galaxies. The aim is to determine whether the ma…
