Abstract
In this study, we have analyzed the spatial and transverse velocity distribution of RR Lyrae stars toward the Galactic bulge. We utilized data from OGLE-IV, Gaia, VVV, and VHS surveys to create reddening maps, derive reddening laws, and estimate distances tailored to each given RR Lyrae variable identified in the Galactic bulge (covering approximately 20<l<-15deg and -15<b<15 deg area).

Steven Gough-Kelly is a PhD research student at the Jeremiah Horrocks
Institute, University of Central Lancashire. His research focuses on the
formation and evolution of box/peanut bulges in barred galaxies, comparing
isolated and cosmological simulations with observations of external galaxies
and the Milky Way.
