Discovery of metal-poor and distant pre-main sequence candidates in WLM with JWST

Venu M. Kalari, Ricardo Salinas, Morten Andersen +4

We present the discovery of twelve metal-poor and distant pre-main sequence (PMS) candidates in the dwarf irregular galaxy Wolf-Lundmark-Melotte (WLM)~968 kpc away, at a present-da…

A high-resolution imaging survey of massive young stellar objects in the Magellanic Clouds

Venu M. Kalari, Ricardo Salinas, Hans Zinnecker +3

Constraints on the binary fraction of young massive stellar objects (mYSOs) are important for binary and massive star formation theory. Here, we present speckle imaging of 34 mYSOs…

Sparse Aperture Masking of Massive Stars

H. Sana, S. Lacour, J. -B. Le Bouquin +5

We present the earliest results of our NACO/VLT sparse aperture masking (SAM) campaign to search for binarity in a sample of 60 O-type stars. We detect Delta Ks < 5 mag companions…

A Hubble View of Star Forming Regions in the Magellanic Clouds

D. A. Gouliermis, Th. Henning, W. Brandner +13

The Magellanic Clouds (MCs) offer an outstanding variety of young stellar associations, in which large samples of low-mass stars (with masses less than 1 solar mass) currently in t…
