VVV Survey Microlensing: the Galactic Latitude Dependence

Maria Gabriela Navarro, Dante Minniti, Joyce Pullen +1

We search for microlensing events in fields along the Galactic minor axis, ranging from the Galactic center to -3.7<b< 3.9 deg., using the VVV survey near-IR photometry. The new se…

VVV-WIT-04: an extragalactic variable source caught by the VVV Survey

Roberto K. Saito, Dante Minniti, Valentin D. Ivanov +8

We report the discovery of VVV-WIT-04, a near-infrared variable source towards the Galactic disk located ~0.2 arcsec apart from the position of the radio source PMN J1515-5559. The…

VVV Survey Microlensing: Catalog of Best and Forsaken Events

Maria Gabriela Navarro, Rodrigo Contreras Ramos, Dante Minniti +3

We search for microlensing events in the zero-latitude area of the Galactic Bulge using the VVV Survey near-IR data. We have discovered a total sample of events within an a…

Microlensing events in the Galactic bulge

Maria Gabriela Navarro, Dante Minniti, Roberto Capuzzo-Dolcetta +2

For the first time we detected microlensing events at zero latitude in the Galactic bulge using the VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea Survey (VVV) data. We have discovered a total…

The asymptotic evolution of the stellar merger V1309 Sco: a Blue Straggler in the making?

Thiago Ferreira, Roberto K. Saito, Dante Minniti +4

Stellar mergers are estimated to be common events in the Galaxy. The best studied stellar merger case to date is V1309 Sco (= Nova Scorpii 2008) which was originally misclassified…
