You can get a nice sample of papers using VVV data using the Astrophysics Database System [0]. I mostly study other galaxies, which usually aren't variable on human lifespan-like timescales. Stars can vary on these shorter timescales, and VVV has compiled a huge list of those objects. At a quick glance, I'd say some interesting results include: * New star clusters discovered in our Galaxy [1] * Galactic maps of dust reddening and stellar metallicity (enriched elemental abundances in stellar photospheres) [2] * Galactic maps of stellar ages throughout the disk plane [3] * Cataloguing other galaxies behind the plane of our own Galaxy [4] [0] https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/search/fq=%7B!type%3Daqp%20v%3D%24fq_database%7D&fq_database=database%3Aastronomy&q=abs%3A((%22VVV%22%20OR%20%22VVVX%22)%20AND%20%22ESO%22)&sort=citation_count%20desc%2C%20bibcode%20desc&p_=0 https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/search/fq=%7B!type%3Daqp%20v%3...
