Rich Física, Astronomía y Matemáticas Bulge data analysis stellar content kinematics and dynamics We report on the advancements of a project which studies the Galactic bulge throught the kinematics of the stellar population in several low foreground extinction windows. In order to obtain the kinematics of as many stars as possible we have used the technique of proper motions in several fields wi th Hubble Space Telescope ( HST ) observations available.
