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…
The central kiloparsec of starbursts and AGN: The La Palma connection
J. H. Knapen, J. E. Beckman, I. Shlosman +1
We describe selected highlights of the international conference ``The Central Kiloparsec of Starbursts and AGN: The La Palma Connection'', held in May 2001 in Los Cancajos on the S…
Searching for the in-plane Galactic bar and ring in DENIS
M. Lopez-Corredoira, P. L. Hammersley, F. Garzon +4
New evidence for a long thin Galactic bar (in contradistinction to the bulge), as well as for the existence of the ring and the truncation of the inner disc, are sought in the DENI…
Detection of the old stellar component of the major Galactic bar
P. L. Hammersley, F. Garzon, T. Mahoney +2
We present near-IR colour--magnitude diagrams and star counts for a number of regions along the Galactic plane. It is shown that along the l=27 b=0 line of sight there is a feature…
Inversion of stellar statistics equation for the Galactic Bulge
M. Lopez-Corredoira, P. L. Hammersley, F. Garzon +2
A method based on Lucy (1974, AJ 79, 745) iterative algorithm is developed to invert the equation of stellar statistics for the Galactic bulge and is then applied to the K-band sta…
