Discovery of a low surface brightness galaxy in the Zone of Avoidance using VVVX Deepstack imaging
J. L. Nilo-Castellón, L. Baravalle, D. Minniti +12
We report the discovery of VVVX J080705.96-273823.6, the first low-surface-brightness galaxy candidate identified in the Zone of Avoidance by the VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea…
The VVVX quest for satellites around the Circinus galaxy
L. D. Baravalle, A. L. O'Mill, M. V. Alonso +10
The Circinus galaxy is the nearest type-2 Seyfert galaxy, which is at a distance of 4.2 Mpc. Its environment is challenging to explore because it is located at low Galactic latitud…
Faint galaxies in the Zone of Avoidance revealed by JWST/NIRCam
J. L. Nilo-Castellón, M. V. Alonso, L. Baravalle +12
The Zone of Avoidance (ZoA) remains one of the last frontiers in constructing a comprehensive three-dimensional map of the Universe. Galactic extinction, stellar crowding, and conf…
The VVV near-IR galaxy catalogue of the southern Galactic disc
M. V. Alonso, L. D. Baravalle, J. L. Nilo Castellón +16
The distribution of galaxies in the Zone of Avoidance (ZoA) is incomplete due to the presence of our own Galaxy. Our research focused on the identification and characterisation of…
Galaxies in the zone of avoidance: Misclassifications using machine learning tools
P. Marchant Cortés, J. L. Nilo Castellón, M. V. Alonso +10
Automated methods for classifying extragalactic objects in large surveys offer significant advantages compared to manual approaches in terms of efficiency and consistency. However,…
High energy gamma-ray sources in the VVV survey -- II. The AGN counterparts
Laura G. Donoso, Ana Pichel, Laura D. Baravalle +9
We identified Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) candidates as counterparts to unidentified gamma-ray sources (UGS) from the Fermi-LAT Fourth Source Catalogue at lower Galactic latitudes…
Galaxy clustering in the VVV Near-IR Galaxy Catalogue
Mario Soto, Mario A. Sgró, Laura D. Baravalle +7
Mapping galaxies at low Galactic latitudes and determining their clustering status are fundamental steps in defining the large-scale structure in the nearby Universe. The VVV Near-…
The VVV Near-IR Galaxy Catalogue beyond the Galactic disk
Laura D. Baravalle, M. Victoria Alonso, Dante Minniti +7
Knowledge about the large-scale distribution of galaxies is far from complete in the Zone of Avoidance, which is mostly due to high interstellar extinction and to source confusion…
