Non-Parametric Density Reconstruction of the Galactic Bulge Area using Red Clump Stars in the VVV Survey
Dylan Paterson, Brenna Coleman, Chris Gordon
Studies of the red clump giant population in the inner Milky Way suggest the Galactic bulge/bar has a boxy/peanut/X-shaped structure as predicted by its formation via a disc buckli…

Maximum Entropy Estimation of the Galactic Bulge Morphology via the VVV Red Clump
Brenna Coleman, Dylan Paterson, Chris Gordon +2
The abundance and narrow magnitude dispersion of Red Clump (RC) stars make them a popular candidate for mapping the morphology of the bulge region of the Milky Way. Using an estima…
