      We present deep near-infrared photometry and spectroscopy of the globular cluster 2MASS-GC03 projected in the Galactic disk using MMIRS on the Clay telescope (Las Campanas Observatory) and VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea ...

    • New Galactic star clusters discovered in the disc area of the VVVX survey 

      Borissova, J.; Ivanov, V. D.; Lucas, P. W.; Kurtev, R.; Alonso-Garcia, J.; Alegria, S. Ramirez; Minniti, D.; Hempel, M.; Medina, N.; Chene, A. N.; Kuhn, M. A. (2018-12-11)
      The "VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea eXtended (VVVX)" ESO Public Survey is a near-infrared photometric sky survey that covers nearly 1700 sq. deg towards the Galactic disk and bulge. It is well-suited to search for new ...
