Stellar density profile and mass of the Milky Way Bulge from VVV data
E. Valenti, M. Zoccali, O. A. Gonzalez +6
We present the first stellar density profile of the Milky Way bulge reaching latitude . It is derived by counting red clump stars within the colour\--magnitude diagram c…

We report the discovery of 158 previously undetected dwarf galaxies in the Fornax cluster central regions using a deep coadded and -band image obtained with the DECam wid…
Wide Field Near-Infrared Photometry of 12 Galactic Globular Clusters: Observations Versus Models on the Red Giant Branch
Roger E. Cohen, Maren Hempel, Francesco Mauro +3
We present wide field near-infrared photometry of 12 Galactic globular clusters, typically extending from the tip of the cluster red giant branch (RGB) to the main sequence turnoff…
