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…

Are high velocity peaks in the Milky Way bulge due to the bar?
Zhao-Yu Li, Juntai Shen, R. Michael Rich +2
Recently the commissioning APOGEE observations of the Galactic bulge reported that a significant fraction of stars () are in a cold ( km/s) high velo…
