- ItemNew Galactic star cluster candidates discovered in the VVV Survey within 10 degrees around the Galactic center(2011) Borissova, J.; Clarke, J. R. A.; Bonatto, C.; Chené, A. -N.; Bica, E.; Kurtev, R.; Barbá, R.; Minniti, D.; Peñaloza, F.; Catelan, Márcio; Lucas, P. W.; Mauro, F.; Moni Bidin, C.; Geisler, D.; Ivanov, V. D.; Baume, G.; Feinstein, C.We report the discovery of 57 new infrared open cluster candidates and stel- lar groups in the inner 10 degrees around the Galactic center. The newly dis- covered candidates are found by visual inspection of near infrared images observed under the Vista Variables in the Via Lactea (VVV) ESO Large Public Survey. The preliminary analysis shows that approximately 1/3 of them are younger than 10 Myrs....

C.; Smith, M.; Sodré, L., Jr.; Stephens, A. W.; Walton, N. A.; Zijlstra, A. A.; Tamura, M.; Tappert, C.; Thompson, M. A.; Vanzi, L.The VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea (VVV) is an ESO public near-IR variability survey that is scanning the Milky Way bulge and an adjacent section of the Galactic mid-plane. The survey will take 1929 hours of observations with the VISTA 4.1-m telescope during five years, covering a billion point sources across an area of 520 sqdeg, including 36 known globular clusters and more than 350 open clusters. The final product will be a deep IR atlas in five passbands (0.9 - 2.5 microns) and a catalogue of more than a million variable point sources....

VVV observations started in October 2009 during ESO science verification. Regular observations for the first year of the survey have been conducted since February 2010 and will cover a total area of 520 square degrees in five passbands and five epochs. Here we address the first results obtained from the VVV Survey as well as the current status of the observations....
