    Vista Variables in the Vía Láctea (VVV) is an ESO Public Survey that is performing a variability survey of the Galactic bulge and part of the inner disk using ESO's Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy (VISTA). The survey covers 520 { deg}^2 of sky area in the ZYJHK_S filters, for a total observing time of 1929 hours, including ∼ 10^9 point sources and an estimated ∼ 10^6 variable stars. Here we describe the current status of the VVV Survey, in addition to a variety of new results based on VVV data, including light curves for variable stars, newly discovered globular clusters, open clusters, and associations. A set of reddening-free indices based on the ZYJHK_S system is also introduced. Finally, we provide an overview of the VVV Templates Project, whose main goal is to derive well-defined light curve templates in the near-IR, for the automated classification of VVV light curves....

    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....

    The VVV Templates Project
    (2014) Contreras Ramos, R.; Catelan, Marcio; Gran, F.; Navarrete, C.; Angeloni, R.; Alonso-García, J.; Dékány, I.; Hajdu, G.; Hempel, M.; Jordán, A.; Townsend, B.; Borissova, J.; Navarro, C.; Pichara, K.; Eyheramendy, S.
    Until now, stellar variability in the near-IR has been a relatively ill-explored research field. In particular, the number of high-quality light curves is very limited and, even worse, many variability classes have not yet been observed in a sufficiently extensive way in the near-IR, so that good light curves are entirely lacking for some such classes. Since VVV is the first ever large survey dedicated to stellar variability in the near-infrared, the first problem we had to face has thus been the construction of a proper statistically significant database of high-quality (i.e., template) near-IR light curves for a significant sample of stars taken to be representative of the different variability classes under study. The main purpose of the VVV Templates Project is thus to build a large database of well-defined, high-quality, near-IR light curves for variable stars of different types, which will form the basis of the VVV automated classification algorithms...

    VISTA Variables in the Vía Láctea (VVV) is a public ESO near-IR variability survey aimed at scanning the Milky Way Bulge and an adjacent section of the mid-plane. 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....

    The VISTA Variables in the Vía Láctea (VVV) survey is one of six near-infrared ESO public surveys, and is now in its fourth year of observing. Although far from being complete, the VVV survey has already delivered many results, some directly connected to the intended science goals (detection of variable stars, microlensing events, new star clusters), others concerning more exotic objects, e.g., novae. Now, at the end of the fourth observing period, and comprising roughly 50% of the proposed observations, the status of the survey, as well some of results based on the VVV data, are presented....
