The spiral potential of the Milky Way

P. Grosbøl, G. Carraro

Radial velocities of 1726 candidate B- and A-type stars within 3deg of the Galactic center (GC) were estimated from FLAMES/VLT spectra in the range of 396-457 nm. The final sample…

A catalog of early-type stars toward the Galactic center

Preben Grosbøl

It is still unclear whether the Sagittarius spiral arm is a major spiral arm in the Galaxy or whether it just outlines a region of enhanced star formation because of the local comp…

First detection of the field star overdensity in the Perseus arm

Maria Monguió, Preben Grosbøl, Francesca Figueras

Aims. The main goal of this study is to detect the stellar overdensity associated with the Perseus arm in the anticenter direction. Methods. We used the physical parameters derived…

Stellar physical parameters from Str ömgren photometry. Application to the young stars in the Galactic anticenter survey

Maria Monguió, Francesca Figueras, Preben Grosbøl

Aims. The aim is to derive accurate stellar distances and extinctions for young stars of our survey in the Galactic anticenter direction using the Strömgren photometric system. Thi…

Star formation in grand-design, spiral galaxies. Young, massive clusters in the near-infrared

P. Grosbol, H. Dottori

Deep, near-infrared JHK-maps were observed for 10 nearby, grand-design, spiral galaxies using HAWK-I/VLT to study the distribution of young stellar clusters in them and thereby det…

NIR view on young stellar clusters in nearby spirals

P. Grosbol, H. Dottori

Observations in the near-infrared (NIR) allow a detailed study of young stellar clusters in grand-design spiral galaxies which in visual bands often are highly obscured by dust lan…
