Investigating the borderline between a young star cluster and a small stellar association: a test case with Bochum1

Eduardo Bica, Charles Bonatto, Carlos M. Dutra

Usually, a loose stellar distribution can be classified as an OB stellar group, an association, or a young open cluster. We make use of comparisons with the typical OB association…

A general catalogue of extended objects in the Magellanic System

Eduardo Bica, Charles Bonatto, Carlos Dutra +1

We update the SMC, Bridge, and LMC catalogues of extended objects that were constructed by members of our group from 1995 to 2000. In addition to the rich subsequent literature for…

On the calibration of the COBE/IRAS dust emission reddening maps

C. M. Dutra, A. V. Ahumada, J. J. Claria +3

In this work we study the spectral properties (3600 - 6800 A) of the nuclear region of early-type galaxies at low (|b|<25, intermediate (including surroundings of the Magellanic Cl…

NTT infrared imaging of star cluster candidates towards the central parts of the Galaxy

C. M. Dutra, S. Ortolani, E. Bica +3

We address the issue whether the central parts of the Galaxy harbour young clusters other than Arches, Quintuplet and the Nuclear Young Cluster. A large sample of centrally project…

New infrared star clusters in the Northern and Equatorial Milky Way with 2MASS

E. Bica, C. M. Dutra, J. Soares +1

We carried out a survey of infrared star clusters and stellar groups on the 2MASS J, H and K_s all-sky release Atlas in the Northern and Equatorial Milky Way (350 < l < 360, 0 < l…

New infrared star clusters in the southern Milky Way with 2MASS

C. M. Dutra, E. Bica, J. Soares +1

We carried out a 2MASS J, H and K_s survey of infrared star clusters in the Milky Way sector 230 350. This zone was the least studied in the literatu…
