New galactic star clusters discovered in the VVV survey. Candidates projected on the inner disk and bulge
J. Borissova, A. -N. Chené, S. Ramírez Alegría +21
VISTA Variables in the Vía Láctea (VVV) is one of six ESO Public Surveys using the 4 meter Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy (VISTA). The VVV survey covers the Mi…
A deep WISE search for very late type objects and the discovery of two halo/thick-disk T dwarfs: WISE 0013+0634 and WISE 0833+0052
D. J. Pinfield, J. Gomes, A. C. Day-Jones +21
A method is defined for identifying late T and Y dwarfs in WISE down to low values of signal-to-noise. This requires a WISE detection only in the W2-band and uses the statistical p…
A spectroscopic and proper motion search of Sloan digital Sky Survey: red subdwarfs in binary systems
Z. H. Zhang, D. J. Pinfield, B. Burningham +13
Red subdwarfs in binary systems are crucial for both model calibration and spectral classification. We search for red subdwarfs in binary systems from a sample of high proper motio…
Obscured clusters.IV. The most massive stars in [DBS2003]179
J. Borissova, L. Georgiev, M. M. Hanson +6
Aims. We report new results for the massive evolved and main sequence members of the young galactic cluster DBS2003 179. We determine the physical parameters and investigate the hi…
VVV DR1: The First Data Release of the Milky Way Bulge and Southern Plane from the Near-Infrared ESO Public Survey VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea
R. K. Saito, M. Hempel, D. Minniti +107
The ESO Public Survey VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea (VVV) started in 2010. VVV targets 562 sq. deg in the Galactic bulge and an adjacent plane region and is expected to run for…
New Galactic Star Clusters Discovered in the VVV Survey
Jura Borissova, Charles Bonatto, Radostin Kurtev +27
VISTA Variables in the V\'ıa Láctea (VVV) is one of the six ESO Public Surveys operating on the new 4-meter Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy (VISTA). VVV is scan…
