Spectroscopic metallicities and first α-element abundances of RR Lyrae stars in Baade's Window
J. Olivares Carvajal, Á. Rojas-Arriagada, M. Zoccali +10
RR Lyrae stars in the bulge have been reported to be associated with the spheroidal, relatively metal-poor component. They offer a way to trace this component with precise distance…
Extinction law and stellar mass in the Nuclear Bulge from kinematically-selected red clump stars
Á. Valenzuela Navarro, M. Zoccali, E. Valenti +10
The Nuclear Bulge of the Milky Way harbors stellar populations that provide crucial insights into galaxy formation processes and serve as a nearby analog for understanding bulge fo…
Unveiling VVV/WISE Mira variables on the far side of the Galactic disk: Distances, kinematics and a new extinction law
Rogelio Albarracín, M. Zoccali, J. Olivares Carvajal +8
The structure and kinematics of the Milky Way disk are largely inferred from the solar vicinity. To gain a comprehensive understanding, it is essential to find reliable tracers in…
VVV catalog of ab-type RR Lyrae in the inner Galactic bulge
M. Zoccali, C. Quezada, R. Contreras Ramos +7
Context. Observational evidence has accumulated in the past years, showing that the Galactic bulge includes two populations, a metal poor and a metal rich one that, in addition to…
Comparing bulge RR Lyrae stars with bulge giants -- Insight from 3D kinematics
J. Olivares Carvajal, M. Zoccali, M. De Leo +6
The structure and kinematics of the old component of the Galactic bulge are still a matter of debate. The bulk of the bulge as traced by red clump stars includes two main component…
Spectroscopic analysis of VVV CL001 cluster with MUSE
Julio Olivares Carvajal, Manuela Zoccali, Alvaro Rojas-Arriagada +4
Like most spiral galaxies, the Milky Way contains a population of blue, metal-poor globular clusters and another of red, metal-rich ones. Most of the latter belong to the bulge, an…
