The X-Shaped Milky Way Bulge in OGLE-III Photometry and in N-Body Models
David M. Nataf, Andrzej Udalski, Jan Skowron +11
We model the split red clump of the Galactic bulge in OGLE-III photometry, and compare the results to predictions from two N-body models. Our analysis yields precise maps of the br…
Red Giant Branch Bump Star Counts in Data and Stellar Models
David M. Nataf
We compare model predictions to observations of star counts in the red giant branch bump (RGBB) relative to the number density of first-ascent red giant branch at the magnitude of…
The Gaia-ESO Survey: the most metal-poor stars in the Galactic bulge
L. Howes, M. Asplund, A. R. Casey +39
We present the first results of the EMBLA survey (Extremely Metal-poor BuLge stars with AAOmega), aimed at finding metal-poor stars in the Milky Way bulge, where the oldest stars s…
On the Correlation Between Metallicity and the X-Shaped Morphology of the Milky Way Bulge
David M. Nataf, S. Cassisi, E. Athanassoula
We demonstrate that failure to properly account for stellar evolution can bias results in determinations of the spatial morphology of Galactic bulge stars, focusing on the question…
Optimal Survey Strategies and Predicted Planet Yields for the Korean Microlensing Telescope Network
Calen B. Henderson, B. Scott Gaudi, Cheongho Han +4
The Korean Microlensing Telescope Network (KMTNet) will consist of three 1.6m telescopes each with a 4 deg^{2} field of view (FoV) and will be dedicated to monitoring the Galactic…
