VLT Spectroscopic Analysis of HH 202. Implications on dust destruction and thermal inhomogeneities
José N. Espíritu, Antonio Peimbert, Gloria Delgado-Inglada +1
We present a long-slit spectroscopic analysis of Herbig-Haro 202 and the surrounding gas of the Orion Nebula using data from the Very Large Telescope. Given the characteristics of…
Kinematic study of planetary nebulae in NGC 6822
S. N. Flores-Durán, M. Peña, L. Hernández-Martínez +2
By measuring precise radial velocities of planetary nebulae (which belong to the intermediate age population), H II regions, and A-type supergiant stars (which are members of the y…
A comprehensive view of the Virgo Stellar Stream
Sonia Duffau, A. Katherina Vivas, Robert Zinn +2
Radial velocities and metallicities have been measured for 82 RR Lyrae identified by the QUEST survey in the direction of the Virgo constellation. Distributed over 90 sq. deg. of t…
A deep WISE search for very late type objects and the discovery of two halo/thick-disk T dwarfs: WISE 0013+0634 and WISE 0833+0052
D. J. Pinfield, J. Gomes, A. C. Day-Jones +21
A method is defined for identifying late T and Y dwarfs in WISE down to low values of signal-to-noise. This requires a WISE detection only in the W2-band and uses the statistical p…
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…
