DENIS is a project to survey the all-southern sky in three wavelength bands (Gunn-i 0.82 μm; J, 1.25 μm; and K_s, 2.15 μm) with limiting magnitudes 18.5, 16.5 and 14.0, respectively. The observations are performed with the 1m-ESO telescope at La Silla (Chile). The DENIS instrument is made up of a 3-channel camera built of commercially available

We analyse the stellar content of almost 300deg^2 of the sky close to the Galactic plane by directly comparing the predictions of the SKY model (Cohen and Wainscoat et al.) with star counts taken from the Two Micron Galactic plane Survey (TMGS: Garzón et al.). Through these comparisons we can examine discrepancies between counts and model and

We present heliocentric radial velocities for a large number of emission lines covering all the optical spectral range for two slit positions of the Galactic H Ii regions M 42 and M 17 and one slit position of M 8. We obtain a fairly similar relation between the heliocentric velocity and the ionization potential of the ions in all the observed slit

We present a comparison of the velocity power spectra between the GOLF and MDI instruments. In addition, this poster outlines work towards creating a GOLF-simulated signal utilizing MDI velocity images. The simulation of the GOLF signal is achieved by integrating spatially weighted masks with MDI LOI-proxy velocity images. The GOLF-simulated signal
