Strengthening the Open Cluster Distance Scale via VVV Photometry
Daniel J. Majaess, David G. Turner, C. Moni Bidin +14
Approximately 14% of known Galactic open clusters possess absolute errors 20% as evaluated from n>3 independent distance estimates, and the statistics for age estimates are markedl…
VVV DR1: The First Data Release of the Milky Way Bulge and Southern Plane from the Near-Infrared ESO Public Survey VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea
R. K. Saito, M. Hempel, D. Minniti +107
The ESO Public Survey VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea (VVV) started in 2010. VVV targets 562 sq. deg in the Galactic bulge and an adjacent plane region and is expected to run for…
New Evidence Supporting Membership for TW Nor in Lynga 6 and the Centaurus Spiral Arm
Daniel J. Majaess, David G. Turner, Christian Moni Bidin +10
The putative association between the 10.8 d classical Cepheid TW Nor and the open cluster Lynga 6 has generated considerable debate in the literature. New JHKs photometry in tandem…
Three Galactic globular cluster candidates
C. Moni Bidin, F. Mauro, D. Geisler +12
The census of Galactic globular clusters (GCs) is still incomplete, and about ten new objects are supposed to await discovery, hidden behind the crowded and reddened regions of the…
H2 flows in the Corona Australis cloud and their driving sources
M. S. N. Kumar, Saurabh Sharma, C. J . Davis +2
We uncover the H2 flows in the Corona Australis molecular cloud and in particular identify the flows from the Coronet cluster. Near-infrared H2 v=1--0 S(1), 2.12micron-line, narrow…
Variable Stars in Large Magellanic Cloud Globular Clusters I: NGC 1466
Charles A. Kuehn, Horace A. Smith, Márcio Catelan +3
This is the first in a series of papers studying the variable stars in Large Magellanic Cloud globular clusters. The primary goal of this series is to better understand how the RR…
