The VMC survey -- XLIII. The spatially resolved star formation history across the Large Magellanic Cloud

Alessandro Mazzi, Léo Girardi, Simone Zaggia +19

We derive the spatially-resolved star formation history (SFH) for a deg area across the main body of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), using the near-infrared photometry f…

The VMC Survey -- XLII. Near-infrared period-luminosity relations for RR Lyrae stars and the structure of the Large Magellanic Cloud

F. Cusano, M. I. Moretti, G. Clementini +11

We present results from an analysis of 29,000 RR Lyrae stars located in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). For these objects, near-infrared time-series photometry from the VI…

The VMC survey -- XLI. Stellar proper motions within the Small Magellanic Cloud

F. Niederhofer, M. -R. L. Cioni, S. Rubele +13

We used data from the near-infrared VISTA survey of the Magellanic Cloud system (VMC) to measure proper motions (PMs) of stars within the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). The data ana…

The VMC Survey -- XL. Three-dimensional structure of the Small Magellanic Cloud as derived from red clump stars

B. L. Tatton, J. Th. van Loon, M. -R. L. Cioni +12

Galaxy interactions distort the distribution of baryonic matter and can affect star formation. The nearby Magellanic Clouds are a prime example of an ongoing galaxy interaction pro…

Constraining the thermally pulsing asymptotic giant branch phase with resolved stellar populations in the Large Magellanic Cloud

Giada Pastorelli, Paola Marigo, Léo Girardi +18

Reliable models of the thermally pulsing asymptotic giant branch (TP-AGB) phase are of critical importance across astrophysics, including our interpretation of the spectral energy…

The VMC survey -- XXXIX: Mapping metallicity trends in the Small Magellanic Cloud using near-infrared passbands

Samyaday Choudhury, Richard de Grijs, Stefano Rubele +7

We have derived high spatial resolution metallicity maps covering 42 deg across the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) in an attempt to understand its metallicity distribution…
