Extinction, the elephant in the room that hinders optical Galactic observations
Jesús Maíz Apellániz
Extinction is the elephant in the room that almost everyone tries to avoid when analyzing optical/IR data: astronomers tend to find a quick fix for it that the referee will accept,…
The Gaia-ESO Public Spectroscopic Survey: Implementation, data products, open cluster survey, science, and legacy
S. Randich, G. Gilmore, L. Magrini +161
In the last 15 years different ground-based spectroscopic surveys have been started (and completed) with the general aim of delivering stellar parameters and elemental abundances f…
Topography of the Young Galactic Disk: Spatial and Kinematic Patterns of the Clustered Star Formation in the Solar Neighborhood
Emilio J. Alfaro, Manuel Jiménez, Mari Carmen Sánchez-Gil +3
The accuracy in determining the spatial-kinematical parameters of open clusters makes them ideal tracers of the Galactic structure. Young open clusters (YOCs) are the main represen…
Escape from the Bermuda cluster: orphanization by multiple stellar ejections
J. Maíz Apellániz, M. Pantaleoni González, R. H. Barbá +1
CONTEXT. Dynamical interactions in young stellar clusters can eject massive stars early in their lives and significantly alter their mass functions. If all of the most massive star…
The Villafranca catalog of Galactic OB groups. II. From Gaia DR2 to EDR3 and ten new systems with O stars
J. Maíz Apellániz, R. H. Barbá, R. Fernández Aranda +4
CONTEXT. This is the second paper of a series on Galactic OB groups that uses astrometric and photometric data from Gaia and spectral classifications from GOSSS and LiLiMaRlin. The…
Optical-NIR dust extinction towards Galactic O stars
J. Maíz Apellániz, R. H. Barbá
[ABRIDGED] Context. O stars are excellent tracers of the intervening ISM because of their high luminosity, blue intrinsic SED, and relatively featureless spectra. We are currently…
