Stellar density distribution along the minor axis of the Large Magellanic Cloud
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2018-02)
We studied the spatial distribution of young and old stellar populations along the western half part of the minor axis of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) using Washington MT1 photometry of selected fields, which span a ...
A likely runaway star cluster in the outer disc of the Large Magellanic Cloud
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2018-10-12)
We present results from photometric and spectroscopic data obtained with SOAR and Gemini observatory facilities in the field of a recently discovered star cluster. The cluster, projected towards the Eastern side of the ...
Evidence of differential tidal effects in the old globular cluster population of the Large Magellanic Cloud
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2018-08)
We present for the first time extended stellar density and/or surface brightness radial profiles for almost all the known LargeMagellanic Cloud (LMC) old globular clusters (GCs). These were built from DECam images and reach ...
Accurate radial velocity and metallicity of the Large Magellanic Cloud old globular clusters NGC1928 and NGC1939
(Oxford University Press, 2018-11)
We present results obtained from spectroscopic observations of red giants located in the fields of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) globular clusters (GCs) NGC1928 and NGC1939. We used the GMOS and AAOmega+2dF spectrographs ...
Results of the ESO-SEST Key Programme on CO in the Magellanic Clouds - IX - The giant LMC HII region complex N 11
(EDP Sciences, 2003)
The second-brightest star formation complex in the Large Magellanic Cloud, N 11, was surveyed extensively in
the J = 1–0 transition of 12CO. In this paper we present maps and a catalogue containing the parameters of 29 ...
Stellar cluster candidates discovered in the Magellanic System
(Institute of Physics Publishing, 2017-01)
We address the currently exciting issue of the presence of stellar clusters in the periphery of the Magellanic Clouds (MCs) and beyond by making use of a wealth of wide-field high-quality images released in advance from ...
Calibrating the Cepheid period-luminosity relation from the infrared surface brightness technique. II. The effect of metallicity and the distance to the LMC
(2011)
The extragalactic distance scale builds directly on the Cepheid Period-Luminosity (PL) relation as delineated by the sample of Cepheids in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). However, the LMC is a dwarf irregular galaxy, ...
Multiple populations of Hβ emission line stars in the large magellanic cloud cluster NGC 1971
(EDP Sciences, 2020-10)
We revisited the young Large Magellanic Cloud star cluster NGC 1971 with the aim of providing additional clues to our understanding of its observed extended Main Sequence turnoff (eMSTO), a feature common seen in young ...
