Roman Early-Definition Astrophysics Survey Opportunity: Galactic Roman Infrared Plane Survey (GRIPS)
Roberta Paladini, Catherine Zucker, Robert Benjamin +67
A wide-field near-infrared survey of the Galactic disk and bulge/bar(s) is supported by a large representation of the community of Galactic astronomers. The combination of sensitiv…
Observational limits on the rate of radiation-driven binary black hole capture events
Michael Ebersold, Shubhanshu Tiwari, Leigh Smith +6
Dense astrophysical environments like globular clusters and galactic nuclei can host hyperbolic encounters of black holes which can lead to gravitational-wave driven capture. There…
The extinction law in the inner deg of the Milky Way and the red clump absolute magnitude in the inner bar-bulge
Jason L. Sanders, Leigh C. Smith, Carlos González-Fernández +2
The extinction law from to microns in the inner deg of the Milky Way is measured using data from VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea, GLIMPSE and WISE. Absol…
Dark lenses through the dust: parallax microlensing events in the VVV
Zofia Kaczmarek, Peter McGill, N. Wyn Evans +4
We use near-infrared photometry and astrometry from the VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea (VVV) survey to analyse microlensing events containing annual microlensing parallax inform…
Self-consistent modelling of the Milky Way's Nuclear Stellar Disc
Mattia C. Sormani, Jason L. Sanders, Tobias K. Fritz +14
The Nuclear Stellar Disc (NSD) is a flattened high-density stellar structure that dominates the gravitational field of the Milky Way at Galactocentric radius $30\lesssim R\lesssim…
Variable star classification across the Galactic bulge and disc with the VISTA Variables in the Vía Láctea survey
Thomas A. Molnar, Jason L. Sanders, Leigh C. Smith +3
We present VIVACE, the VIrac VAriable Classification Ensemble, a catalogue of variable stars extracted from an automated classification pipeline for the Vista Variables in the Vía…
