Near-infrared studies of the Milky Way
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 04 August 2017
Abstract
The inner region of the Galaxy has been explored by means of near-infrared observations; the distribution and population of the stars are studied from the near-infrared brightness mapping and star counts in the Milky Way, while the magnetic-field configuration is probed by the near-infrared polarimetry.
