Bayesian distances and extinctions for giants observed by Kepler and APOGEE

Thaíse S. Rodrigues, Léo Girardi, Andrea Miglio +30

We present a first determination of distances and extinctions for individual stars in the first release of the APOKASC catalogue, built from the joint efforts of the Apache Point O…

Milky Way demographics with the VVV Survey III. Evidence for a Great Dark Lane in the 157 Million Star Bulge Color-Magnitude Diagram

D. Minniti, R. K. Saito, O. A. Gonzalez +10

The new generation of IR surveys are revealing and quantifying Galactic features, providing an improved 3-D interpretation of our own Galaxy. We present an analysis of the global d…

Chemical Abundances of M giants in the Galactic Center: a Single Metal-Rich Population with Low [alpha/Fe]

N. Ryde, M. Schultheis

Context. The formation and evolution of the Milky Way bulge is still largely an unanswered question. One of the most essential observables needed in its modelling are the metallici…

The Gaia-ESO Survey: metallicity and kinematic trends in the Milky Way bulge

A. Rojas-Arriagada, A. Recio-Blanco, V. Hill +30

(Abridged) We analyzed the stellar parameters and radial velocities of ~1200 stars in five bulge fields as determined from the Gaia-ESO survey data (iDR1). We use VISTA Variables i…

A three dimensional extinction map of the Galactic Anticentre from multi-band photometry

B. -Q Chen, X. -W. Liu, H. -B. Yuan +8

We present a three dimensional extinction map in band. The map has a spatial angular resolution, depending on latitude, between 3 -- 9\,arcmin and covers the entire XSTPS-GAC s…

Mapping the Milky Way bulge at high resolution: the 3D dust extinction, CO, and X factor maps

M. Schultheis, B. Q. Chen, B. W. Jiang +6

Three dimensional interstellar extinction maps provide a powerful tool for stellar population analysis. We use data from the VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea survey together with…
