The VMC Survey. XVIII. Radial dependence of the low-mass, 0.55--0.82 stellar mass function in the Galactic globular cluster 47 Tucanae

Chaoli Zhang, Chengyuan Li, Richard de Grijs +12

We use near-infrared observations obtained as part of the {\sl Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy} (VISTA) Survey of the Magellanic Clouds (VMC), as well as two co…

The star cluster mass--galactocentric radius relation: Implications for cluster formation

Weijia Sun, Richard de Grijs, Zhou Fan +1

Whether or not the initial star cluster mass function is established through a universal, galactocentric-distance-independent stochastic process, on the scales of individual galaxi…

New quasars behind the Magellanic Clouds. Spectroscopic confirmation of near-infrared selected candidates

Valentin D. Ivanov, Maria-Rosa L. Cioni, Kenji Bekki +7

Quasi--stellar objects (quasars) located behind nearby galaxies provide an excellent absolute reference system for astrometric studies, but they are difficult to identify because o…

The VMC Survey - XX. Identification of new Cepheids in the Small Magellanic Cloud

M. I. Moretti, G. Clementini, V. Ripepi +9

We present Ks -band light curves for 299 Cepheids in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) of which 288 are new discoveries that we have identified using multi-epoch near-infrared photo…

The VMC survey - XVI. Spatial variation of the cluster-formation activity in the innermost regions of the Large Magellanic Cloud

Andrés E. Piatti, Richard de Grijs, Vincenzo Ripepi +6

We present results based on photometry of star clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), distributed throughout the central part of the galaxy's bar and the 30 Do…

Swift J0525.6+2416 and IGR J04571+4527: two new hard X-ray selected magnetic cataclysmic variables identified with XMM-Newton

F. Bernardini, D. de Martino, K. Mukai +4

IGR J04571+4527 and Swift J0525.6+2416 are two hard X-ray sources detected in the Swift/BAT and INTEGRAL/IBIS surveys. They were proposed to be magnetic cataclysmic variables of th…

Swift J1734.5-3027: a new long type-I X-ray bursting source

E. Bozzo, P. Romano, M. Falanga +3

Swift J1734.5-3027 is a hard X-ray transient discovered by Swift while undergoing an outburst in September 2013. Archival observations showed that this source underwent a previous…

The ephemeris, orbital decay, and masses of 10 eclipsing HMXBs

M. Falanga, E. Bozzo, A. Lutovinov +3

We take advantage of more than 10 years of monitoring of the eclipsing HMXB systems LMC X-4, Cen X-3, 4U 1700-377, 4U 1538-522, SMC X-1, IGR J18027-2016, Vela X-1, IGR J17252-3616,…
