Abstract

We report the preliminary results of our research that includes stellar radial velocities and proper motion measurements in several windows of the Galactic Bulge, using HST images and VIMOS integral field spectroscopy. A new procedure to obtain spectra of stars in very crowded fields and to combine the information of both instruments has been developed. Using these results we have found a significant vertex deviation in two fields.
