Deriving Metallicities from Calcium Triplet Spectroscopy in combination with Near Infrared Photometry
F. Mauro, C. Moni Bidin, D. Geisler +7
Context. [...] One of the most efficient methods is the measurement of the equivalent width (EW) of the Calcium II Triplet (CaT), corrected for the luminosity and temperature effec…
Investigating potential planetary nebula/cluster pairs
Christian Moni Bidin, Daniel Majaess, Charles Bonatto +10
Fundamental parameters characterizing the end-state of intermediate-mass stars may be constrained by discovering planetary nebulae (PNe) in open clusters (OCs). Cluster membership…
Stellar Variability in the VVV survey
M. Catelan, D. Minniti, P. W. Lucas +34
The Vista Variables in the Vía Láctea (VVV) ESO Public Survey is an ongoing time-series, near-infrared (IR) survey of the Galactic bulge and an adjacent portion of the inner disk,…
Anchors for the Cosmic Distance Scale: the Cepheid QZ Normae in the Open Cluster NGC 6067
D. Majaess, L. Sturch, C. Moni Bidin +13
Cepheids are key to establishing the cosmic distance scale. Therefore it's important to assess the viability of QZ Nor, V340 Nor, and GU Nor as calibrators for Leavitt's law via th…
The VVV-SkZ pipeline: an automatic PSF-fitting photometric pipeline for the VVV survey
Francesco Mauro, Christian Moni Bidin, André-Nicolas Chené +4
We present the VVV-SkZ_pipeline, a DAOPHOT-based photometric pipeline, created to perform PSF-fitting photometry of "VISTA Variables in the Vía Láctea" (VVV) ESO Public Survey data…
