We present 97 QSO candidates in 48 Galactic Bulge fields of the Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment II (OGLE-II) covering about 11 square degrees, which are selected via their variability. We extend light curves of variable objects…

The Southern Galactic Disk Survey (GDS) monitored a mosaic of 268 fields along a $6^\circ$-wide stripe in the southern Galactic disk with simultaneous observations in $r'$ and $i'$ ($7^\mathrm{m} \lesssim r', i' \lesssim 18^\mathrm{m}$)…

We present the results of a massive variability search based on a photometric survey of a six square degree region along the Galactic plane at ($l = 305^\circ$, $b = -0.8^\circ$) and ($l = 330^\circ$, $b = -2.5^\circ$). This survey was…

Planetary nebulae (PNe) are powerful tracers of evolved stellar populations. Among the 3000 known PNe in the Galaxy, about 600 are located within the 520 square-degree area covered by the VVV survey. The VVV photometric catalogue provides…
