    • Searching for faint comoving companions to the alpha Centauri system in the VVV survey infrared images 
      Beamín, J. C.; Minniti, D.; Pullen, J. B.; Ivanov, V. D.; Bendek, E.; Bayo, A.; Gromadzki, M.; Kurtev, R.; Lucas, P. W.; Butler, R. P. (Oxford university press, 2017)
      The VVV survey has observed the southern disc of the Milky Way in the near-infrared, covering 240 deg(2) in the ZYJHKs filters. We search the VVV survey images in a similar to 19 deg(2) field around alpha Centauri, the ...
    • The Emergence of the Infrared Transient VVV-WIT-06 
      Minniti, D.; Saito, R. K.; Forster, Francisco; Pignata Libralato, Giuliano; Ivanov, V. D.; Lucas, P. W.; Beamin, J. C.; Borissova, J.; Catelan, M.; González, O. A.; Hempel, M.; Hsiao, E. Y.; Kurtev, R.; Majaess, D.; Masetti, N.; Morrell, N. I.; Phillips, M. M.; Pullen, J. B.; Rejkuba, M.; Smith, L.; Surot, F.; Valenti, E.; Zoccali, M. (Institute of Physics, 2017)
      We report the discovery of an enigmatic large-amplitude (DKs > 10.5 mag) transient event in near-IR data obtained by the VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea (VVV) ESO Public Survey. The object (designated VVV-WIT- 06) is ...
