New star clusters projected close to the Galactic Centre
read the original abstract
We carried out a systematic search for new star clusters in a field of 5$^{\circ} \times5^{\circ}$ centred close to the Galactic Nucleus using the infrared JHK$_s$ 2MASS Survey archive. In addition we searched for embedded clusters in the directions of HII regions and dark clouds for $|\ell|\le4^{\circ}$. As a result we present a list of 58 IR star clusters or candidates. We provide positions, sizes and reddening estimated from 100 $\mu$m dust emission. Their angular distribution together with previously catalogued objects in the region and possible relation with star forming complexes are also discussed.

SDSS-V LVM: Verifying what, and where, the 'Galactic Center' Lobe is
The Galactic Center Lobe is a foreground HII region at ~2 kpc, photoionized and forming a closed outer loop, not a Galactic center feature.
