Massive stars in the hinterland of the young cluster, Westerlund 2

J. E. Drew, A. Herrero, M. Mohr-Smith +4

An unsettled question concerning the formation and distribution of massive stars is whether they must be born in massive clusters and, if found in less dense environments, whether…

The deep OB star population in Carina from the VST Photometric H Survey (VPHAS+)

M. Mohr-Smith, J. E. Drew, R. Napiwotzki +10

Massive OB stars are critical to the ecology of galaxies, and yet our knowledge of OB stars in the Milky Way, fainter than , remains patchy. Data from the VST Photometri…

A search for white dwarfs in the Galactic plane: the field and the open cluster population

R. Raddi, S. Catalan, B. T. Gaensicke +13

We investigated the prospects for systematic searches of white dwarfs at low Galactic latitudes, using the VLT Survey Telescope (VST) H Photometric Survey of the Galactic plane…

New OB star candidates in the Carina Arm around Westerlund 2 from VPHAS+

M. Mohr-Smith, J. E. Drew, G. Barentsen +12

O and early B stars are at the apex of galactic ecology, but in the Milky Way, only a minority of them may yet have been identified. We present the results of a pilot study to sele…

The Massive Star Population of Cygnus OB2

Nicholas J. Wright, Janet E. Drew, Michael Mohr-Smith

We have compiled a significantly updated and comprehensive census of massive stars in the nearby Cygnus OB2 association by gathering and homogenising data from across the literatur…

The Second Data Release of the INT Photometric H-Alpha Survey of the Northern Galactic Plane (IPHAS DR2)

Geert Barentsen, H. J. Farnhill, J. E. Drew +50

The INT/WFC Photometric H-Alpha Survey of the Northern Galactic Plane (IPHAS) is a 1800 square degrees imaging survey covering Galactic latitudes |b| < 5 deg and longitudes l = 30…

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…
