Marginal likelihoods of distances and extinctions to stars: computation and compact representation
S. E. Sale, J. Magorrian
We present a method for obtaining the likelihood function of distance and extinction to a star given its photometry. The other properties of the star (its mass, age, metallicity an…
A deep catalogue of classical Be stars in the direction of the Perseus Arm: spectral types and interstellar reddenings
R. Raddi, J. E. Drew, D. Steeghs +5
We present a catalogue of 247 photometrically and spectroscopically confirmed fainter classical Be stars (13 < r < 16) in the direction of the Perseus Arm of the Milky Way (-1 < b…
A 3D extinction map of the Northern Galactic Plane based on IPHAS photometry
S. E. Sale, J. E. Drew, G. Barentsen +7
We present a three dimensional map of extinction in the Northern Galactic Plane derived using photometry from the IPHAS survey. The map has fine angular ( arcmin) and dist…
VISTA Variables in the Vía Láctea (VVV): Halfway Status and Results
Maren Hempel, Dante Minniti, István Dékány +89
The VISTA Variables in the Vía Láctea (VVV) survey is one of six public ESO surveys, and is now in its 4th year of observing. Although far from being complete, the VVV survey has a…
The Second Data Release of the INT Photometric H-Alpha Survey of the Northern Galactic Plane (IPHAS DR2)
Geert Barentsen, H. J. Farnhill, J. E. Drew +50
The INT/WFC Photometric H-Alpha Survey of the Northern Galactic Plane (IPHAS) is a 1800 square degrees imaging survey covering Galactic latitudes |b| < 5 deg and longitudes l = 30…
Three-dimensional extinction mapping using Gaussian random fields
S. E. Sale, J. Magorrian
We present a scheme for using stellar catalogues to map the three-dimensional distributions of extinction and dust within our Galaxy. Extinction is modelled as a Gaussian random fi…
