Uniformly-calibrated VPHAS+ photometry in the third quadrant of the Galactic plane

J. E. Drew, R. Greimel, J. Eislöffel +2

The southern Galactic plane has been mapped at optical wavelengths and at under one-arcsecond angular resolution by the VST Photometric Ha Survey of the Galactic plane and bulge (V…

Blue extreme disk-runaway stars with Gaia EDR3

Andreas Irrgang, Markus Dimpel, Ulrich Heber +1

Since the discovery of hypervelocity stars in 2005, it has been widely believed that only the disruption of a binary system by a supermassive black hole at the Galactic center (GC)…

The Gaia DR2 halo white dwarf population: the luminosity function, mass distribution and its star formation history

Santiago Torres, Alberto Rebassa-Mansergas, María E. Camisassa +1

We analyze the volume-limited nearly complete 100 pc sample of 95 halo white dwarf candidates identified by the second data release of Gaia. Based on a detailed population synthesi…

A 3D extinction map of the Northern Galactic Plane based on IPHAS photometry

S. E. Sale, J. E. Drew, G. Barentsen +7

We present a three dimensional map of extinction in the Northern Galactic Plane derived using photometry from the IPHAS survey. The map has fine angular ( arcmin) and dist…

The VST Photometric Halpha Survey of the Southern Galactic Plane and Bulge (VPHAS+)

J. E. Drew, E. Gonzalez-Solares, R. Greimel +32

The VST Photometric Halpha Survey of the Southern Galactic Plane and Bulge (VPHAS+) is surveying the southern Milky Way in u, g, r, i and Halpha at 1 arcsec angular resolution. Its…

First results of an H-alpha based search of classical Be stars in the Perseus Arm and beyond

R. Raddi, J. E. Drew, J. Fabregat +9

We investigate a region of the Galactic plane, between 120 <= l <= 140 and -1 <= b <= +4, and uncover a population of moderately reddened (E(B-V) \sim 1) classical Be stars within…
