    Discovery of a pair of classical Cepheids in an invisible cluster beyond the Galactic bulge 
    Majaess, Daniel J.; Dekany, I.; Minniti, D.; Hajdu, G.; Alonso-Garcia, J.; Hempel, M.; Palma, T.; Catelan, M.; Gieren, W. (American Astronomical Society, 2015-01-20)
    We report the discovery of a pair of extremely reddened classical Cepheid variable stars located in the Galactic plane behind the bulge, using near-infrared (NIR) time-series photometry from the VISTA Variables in the Vía ...

    The VVV Survey reveals classical Cepheids tracing a young and thin stellar disk across the Galaxy's bulge 
    Dekany, I.; Minniti, D.; Majaess, Daniel J.; Zoccali, M.; Hajdu, G.; Alonso-Garcia, J.; Catelan, M.; Gieren, W.; Borissova, J. (American Astronomical Society, 2015-10-20)
    Solid insight into the physics of the inner Milky Way is key to understanding our Galaxy’s evolution, but extreme dust obscuration has historically hindered efforts to map the area along the Galactic mid-plane. New ...
