Revisiting the Milky Way stellar long bar and the 3 kpc arm

M. Lopez-Corredoira, W. Wu, H. -F. Wang +1

CONTEXT. One of the most difficult and unexplored regions of the Milky Way is the highly extincted in-plane central region within the Galactic coordinates $10^\circ \lesssim |\ell…

An Alternative Explanation for the Helium Star Pulsar Binary J19281815: The Most Heavyweight Black Widow System to Date

Hang Gong, Alexey Bobrick, Francisco Garzón +7

We present the results of deep near-infrared imaging of the recently discovered helium star pulsar binary J19281815 situated in the Galactic plane. Our observations did not achi…

Disk stars in the Milky Way detected beyond 25 kpc from its center

M. Lopez-Corredoira, C. Allende Prieto, F. Garzon +3

CONTEXT. The maximum size of the Galactic stellar disk is not yet known. Some studies have suggested an abrupt drop-off of the stellar density of the disk at Galactocentric distanc…

The long Galactic bar as seen by UKIDSS Galactic Plane Survey

A. Cabrera-Lavers, C. Gonzalez-Fernandez, F. Garzon +2

Over the last decade there have been a series of results supporting the hypothesis of the existence of a long thin bar in the Milky Way with a half-length of 4.5 kpc and a position…

Tracing the long bar with red-clump giants

A. Cabrera-Lavers, P. L. Hammersley, C. Gonzalez-Fernandez +3

Over the last decade a series of results have lent support to the hypothesis of the existence of a long thin bar in the Milky Way with a half-length of 4.5 kpc and a position angle…

The Long Bar in the Milky Way. Corroboration of an old hypothesis

M. Lopez-Corredoira, A. Cabrera-Lavers, T. J. Mahoney +3

Recent GLIMPSE data have further confirmed the hypothesis of the existence of an in-plane long bar different from the bulge of the Milky Way with the same characteristics as emphas…
