Deep VISTA observations of the Magellanic Clouds (VMCDeep)
M. -R. L. Cioni, A. O. Omkumar, N. J. G. Cross +28
The central regions of galaxies challenge observers with a high density of stars, gas and dust. The LMC hosts a dense stellar bar whereas the SMC hosts a dense core, which have elu…

Determination of [Fe/H] in Fundamental mode Classical Cepheids from Gaia DR3 light curve Fourier parameters
Roberto Molinaro, Vincenzo Ripepi, Marcella Marconi +9
Estimating the iron abundance ([Fe/H]) of Classical Cepheids (CCs) is crucial both for validating the cosmic distance scale through the Period-Luminosity relation and for tracing t…

STEP survey: III. STEPping stones between the clouds: the star formation history of the Magellanic Bridge
F. Ficara, V. Ripepi, M. Cignoni +8
The Magellanic Clouds (MCs) offer a unique laboratory for studying galaxy interaction and the evolution of dwarf galaxies. By investigating when and how stars formed, the star form…
