The long-term outburst(s) of GPSV16: from an intermediate to a FUor classification
Carlos Contreras Peña, Jeong-Eun Lee, Philip W. Lucas +8
FU Ori outbursts are thought to play a key role in stellar mass assembly and in the chemistry of protoplanetary disks during the early formation of stars. However, uncertainties re…
A near-infrared stellar atlas of the Galactic plane from the VVVX survey
Javier Alonso-GarcÃa, Maren Hempel, Roberto K. Saito +12
The VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea eXtended (VVVX) ESO public survey observed the Galactic plane and the outer Galactic bulge in the near-infrared to mitigate the effects of ext…
Young Stellar Objects in the Carina nebula: Near-Infrared variability and spectroscopy
Jura Borissova, Radostin Kurtev, Josemanuel Escobar +10
We present a catalog of 652 young stellar objects (YSOs) in the Carina star-forming region. The catalog was constructed by combining near-infrared Ks-band variability from the VIST…
Variable stars in the VVV globular clusters III. RR Lyrae stars in the inner Galactic globular clusters
Javier Alonso-GarcÃa, Leigh C. Smith, Jason L. Sanders +13
High reddening near the Galactic plane hampers observations and proper characterization of the globular clusters (GCs) located toward the inner regions of the Milky Way. The VISTA…
