      Context. The ESO public survey VISTA variables in the Vía Láctea (VVV) started in 2010. VVV targets 562 sq. deg in the Galactic bulge and an adjacent plane region and is expected to run for about five years. Aims. We ...

    • VVV-WIT-01: highly obscured classical nova or protostellar collision? 

      Lucas, P. W.; Minniti, D.; Kamble, A.; Kaplan, D. L.; Cross, N.; Dekany, I.; Ivanov, V. D.; Kurtev, R.; Saito, R. K.; Smith, L. C.; Catelan, M.; Masetti, N.; Toledo, I.; Hempel, M.; Thompson, M. A.; Peña, C. Contreras; Forbrich, J.; Krause, M.; Dale, J.; Borissova, J.; Emerson, J.P. (2020-03)
      A search of the first Data Release of the VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea (VVV) Survey discovered the exceptionally red transient VVV-WIT-01 (H-Ks=5.2). It peaked before March 2010, then faded by ~9.5 mag over the following ...
