Extinction law and stellar mass in the Nuclear Bulge from kinematically-selected red clump stars

Á. Valenzuela Navarro, M. Zoccali, E. Valenti +10

The Nuclear Bulge of the Milky Way harbors stellar populations that provide crucial insights into galaxy formation processes and serve as a nearby analog for understanding bulge fo…

Globular clusters in \textsc{OrbIT}: complete dynamical characterisation of the globular cluster population of the Milky Way through updated orbital reconstruction

Michele De Leo, Manuela Zoccali, Julio Olivares-Carvajal +3

In hierarchical structure formation, the content of a galaxy is determined both by its in-situ processes and by material added via accretions. Globular clusters in particular repre…

Unveiling VVV/WISE Mira variables on the far side of the Galactic disk: Distances, kinematics and a new extinction law

Rogelio Albarracín, M. Zoccali, J. Olivares Carvajal +8

The structure and kinematics of the Milky Way disk are largely inferred from the solar vicinity. To gain a comprehensive understanding, it is essential to find reliable tracers in…

The Pristine survey -- XXIII. Data Release 1 and an all-sky metallicity catalogue based on Gaia DR3 BP/RP spectro-photometry

Nicolas F. Martin, Else Starkenburg, Zhen Yuan +38

We used the spectro-photometric information of ~219 million stars from Gaia's DR3 to calculate synthetic, narrow-band, metallicity-sensitive CaHK magnitudes that mimic the observat…
