Star clusters as tracers of the perturbed southern outer disk of the Large Magellanic Cloud

Matías Chiarpotti, Andrés E. Piatti, Denis M. F. Illesca +1

The complex interaction history between the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (L/SMC) has left significant imprints on their structural and chemical evolution. In this work, we use…

3D kinematics of SMC star clusters: residual velocities disentangle kinematically perturbed clusters

Denis M. F. Illesca, Andrés E. Piatti, Matías Chiarpotti +1

Understanding the kinematic behaviour of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) remains a challenge addressed by many authors using diverse approaches. Over time, increasing observationa…

Probing the farthest star clusters to the Small Magellanic Cloud

A. E. Piatti, D. M. F. Illesca, M. Chiarpotti +1

The Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) has been tidally shaped by the interaction with the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). The scope of such an interaction has recently been studied from d…

Astrophysical properties of star clusters projected toward tidally perturbed SMC regions

Denis M. F. Illesca, Andrés E. Piatti, Matías Chiarpotti +1

We report on the astrophysical properties of a sample of star clusters in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). They have been selected with the aim of looking for the connection betwe…

Assessing the physical reality of Milky Way open cluster candidates

A. E. Piatti, D. M. F. Illesca, A. A. Massara +4

We report results on the analysis of eleven new Milky Way open cluster candidates, recently discovered from the detection of stellar overdensities in the Vector Point diagram, by e…
