Galactic Plane Hαα Surveys: IPHAS & VPHAS+

preprint2015arXivOpen access

Abstract

The optical Galactic Plane Hαα surveys IPHAS and VPHAS+ are dramatically improving our understanding of Galactic stellar populations and stellar evolution by providing large samples of stars in short lived, but important, evolutionary phases, and high quality homogeneous photometry and images over the entire Galactic Plane. Here I summarise some of the contributions these surveys have already made to our understanding of a number of key areas of stellar and Galactic astronomy.
