Spitzer spectroscopy of carbon stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud
Eric Lagadec, Albert A. Zijlstra, G. C. Sloan +12
We present Spitzer Space telescope spectroscopic observations of 14 carbon-rich AGB stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud. SiC dust is seen in most of the carbon-rich stars but it is…
The VMC Survey IV. The LMC star formation history and disk geometry from four VMC tiles
S. Rubele, L. Kerber, L. Girardi +13
We derive the star formation history for several regions of the LMC, using deep near-infrared data from the VISTA near-infrared YJKs survey of the Magellanic system (VMC). The regi…
On the usefulness of finding charts Or the runaway carbon stars of the Blanco & McCarthy field 37
C. Loup, N. Delmotte, D. Egret +2
We have been recently faced with the problem of cross--identifying stars recorded in historical catalogues with those extracted from recent fully digitized surveys (such as DENIS a…
The Science Case for PILOT I: Summary and Overview
J. S. Lawrence, M. C. B. Ashley, J. Bailey +40
PILOT (the Pathfinder for an International Large Optical Telescope) is a proposed 2.5 m optical/infrared telescope to be located at Dome C on the Antarctic plateau. Conditions at D…
The Science Case for PILOT III: the Nearby Universe
J. S. Lawrence, M. C. B. Ashley, J. Bailey +20
PILOT (the Pathfinder for an International Large Optical Telescope is a proposed 2.5 m optical/infrared telescope to be located at DomeC on the Antarctic plateau. The atmospheric c…
On the Recovery of the Star Formation History of the LMC from the VISTA Survey of the Magellanic System
L. Kerber, L. Girardi, S. Rubele +1
The VISTA near infrared survey of the Magellanic System (VMC) will provide deep YJKs photometry reaching stars in the oldest turn-off point all over the Magellanic Clouds (MCs). As…
