Structure in the first quadrant of the Galaxy: an analysis of TMGS star counts using the SKY model

We analyse the stellar content of almost 300 deg2 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 examin...
