LSST Cadence Optimization White Paper: The Definitive Map of the Galactic bulge
Oscar A. Gonzalez, Will Clarkson, Victor P. Debattista +14
We recommend configuring the LSST coverage of the inner Galactic plane to allow the production of the definitive age/metallicity map of the Galactic bulge from LSST data, matched t…
Variable stars in Terzan 5: additional evidence of multi-age and multi-iron stellar populations
L. Origlia, A. Mucciarelli, G. Fiorentino +8
Terzan 5 is a complex stellar system in the Galactic bulge, harboring stellar populations with very different iron content (Δ[Fe/H] ~1 dex) and with ages differing by several Gyrs.…
Positional Offsets Between SiO Masers in Evolved Stars and their Cross-Matched Counterparts
Ylva M. Pihlström, Loránt O. Sjouwerman, Mark J Claussen +4
Observations of dust-enshrouded evolved stars selected from infrared catalogs requiring high positional accuracy, like infrared spectroscopy or long baseline radio interferometric…
The large-scale structure of the halo of the Andromeda galaxy II. Hierarchical structure in the Pan-Andromeda Archaeological Survey
Alan W. McConnachie, Rodrigo Ibata, Nicolas Martin +29
The Pan-Andromeda Archaeological Survey is a survey of square degrees centered on the Andromeda (M31) and Triangulum (M33) galaxies that has provided the most extensive pano…
Evidence against anomalous compositions for giants in the Galactic Nuclear Star Cluster
B. Thorsbro, N. Ryde, M. Schultheis +5
Very strong Sc I lines have been found recently in cool M giants in the Nuclear Star Cluster in the Galactic Center. Interpreting these as anomalously high scandium abundances in t…
Pristine Dwarf-Galaxy Survey I: A detailed photometric and spectroscopic study of the very metal-poor Draco II satellite
Nicolas Longeard, Nicolas Martin, Else Starkenburg +17
We present a detailed study of the faint Milky Way satellite Draco II (Dra II) from deep CFHT/MegaCam broadband and photometry and narrow-band metallicity-sensitive CaHK ob…
Detections of massive stars in the cluster MCM2005b77, in the star-forming regions GRS G331.3400.36 (S62) and GRS G337.9200.48 (S36)
Maria Messineo, Karl M. Menten, Donald F. Figer +2
Large infrared and millimeter wavelength surveys of the Galactic plane have unveiled more than 600 new bubble HII regions and more than 3000 candidate star clusters. We present a s…
Chemical Characterization of the Inner Galactic bulge:North-South Symmetry
G. Nandakumar, N. Ryde, M. Schultheis +5
While the number of stars in the Galactic bulge with detailed chemical abundance measurements is increasingly rapidly, the inner Galactic bulge ( |b| < 2) remains poorly st…
SiO Masers in the Galactic Bulge and Disk: Kinematics from the BAaDE Survey
A. C. Trapp, R. M. Rich, M. R. Morris +4
We present the first results from the BAaDE (Bulge Asymmetries and Dynamic Evolution) survey. Though only a subset of the complete survey (2700 out of 20000 final sourc…
The central velocity dispersion of the Milky Way bulge
E. Valenti, M. Zoccali, A. Mucciarelli +9
Recent spectroscopic and photometric surveys are providing a comprehensive view of the MW bulge stellar population properties with unprecedented accuracy. This in turn allows us to…
Chemically-dissected rotation curves of the Galactic Bulge from Main Sequence proper motions
William I. Clarkson, Annalisa Calamida, Kailash C. Sahu +9
We report results from an exploratory study implementing a new probe of Galactic evolution using archival Hubble Space Telescope imaging observations. Precise proper motions are co…
Radial velocities of RR Lyrae stars in and around NGC 6441
Andrea Kunder, Arthur Mills, Joseph Edgecomb +9
Detailed elemental abundance patterns of metal-poor ([Fe/H] ~ -1~dex) stars in the Galactic bulge indicate that a number of them are consistent with globular cluster (GC) stars and…
