Characterizing dynamical states of Galactic open clusters with Gaia DR2
M. S. Angelo, W. J. B. Corradi, J. F. C. Santos +2
In this work, we investigate the dynamical properties of 38 Galactic open clusters: 34 of them are located at low Galactic latitudes (|b| < 10) and are projected against…
The VISCACHA survey -- II. Structure of star clusters in the Magellanic Clouds periphery
J. F. C. Santos, F. F. S. Maia, B. Dias +11
We provide a homogeneous set of structural parameters of 83 star clusters located at the periphery of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) and the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). The clu…
An Updated SMC and Magellanic Bridge Catalog of Star Clusters, Associations and Related Objects
Eduardo Bica, Pieter Westera, Leandro de O. Kerber +5
We present a catalog of star clusters, associations and related extended objects in the Small Magellanic Cloud and the Magellanic Bridge with 2741 entries, a factor 2 more than a p…
The VISCACHA survey - I. Overview and First Results
Francisco F. S. Maia, Bruno Dias, João F. C. Santos +15
The VISCACHA (VIsible Soar photometry of star Clusters in tApii and Coxi HuguA) Survey is an ongoing project based on deep photometric observations of Magellanic Cloud star cluster…
Characterization and Photometric Membership of the Open Cluster NGC1981
F. F. S. Maia, W. J. B. Corradi, J. F. C. Santos
Open clusters belonging to star-forming complexes are the leftovers from the initial stellar generations. The study of these young systems provides constraints to models of star fo…
Membership Probability via Control Field Colour-Magnitude Decontamination
Wagner J. B. Corradi, Francisco F. S. Maia, Joao F. C. Santos
The open clusters fundamental physical parameters are important tools to understand the formation and evolution of the Galactic disk and as grounding tests for star formation and e…
Open Cluster Characterization via Cross-Correlation with Spectral Library
Francisco F. S. Maia, Joao F. C. Santos, Wagner J. B. Corradi +1
We present a characterization method based on spectral cross-correlation to obtain the physical parameters of the controversial stellar aggregate ESO442-SC04. The data used was obt…
Astrophysical properties of binary star clusters in the Small Magellanic Cloud
J. F. C. Santos, A. A. Schmidt, E. Bica
To study the evolution of binary star clusters we have imaged 7 systems in the Small Magellanic Cloud with SOAR 4-m telescope using B and V filters. The sample contains pairs with…
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…
Discovery of an open cluster with a possible physical association with a planetary nebula
Charles Bonatto, Eduardo Bica, Joao F. C. Santos
We report the discovery of a new open cluster (OC) in the Galaxy at and . Its field includes the planetary nebula (PN) PK 167-0.1. We study the pos…
The Line-of-Sight Depth of Populous Clusters in the Small Magellanic Cloud
Hugh H. Crowl, Ata Sarajedini, Andres E. Piatti +4
We present an analysis of age, metal abundance, and positional data on populous clusters in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) with the ultimate aim of determining the line-of-sight…
Ages and metallicities of five intermediate-age star clusters projected towards the Small Magellanic Cloud
A. E. Piatti, J. F. C. Santos, J. J. Claria +3
Colour-magnitude diagrams are presented for the first time for L32, L38, K28 (L43), K44 (L68) and L116, which are clusters projected onto the outer parts of the Small Magellanic Cl…
A New Giant Branch Clump Structure In the Large Magellanic Cloud
A. E. Piatti, D. Geisler, E. Bica +4
We present Washington C, T1 CCD photometry of 21 fields located in the northern part of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), and spread over a region of more than 2.52 degrees approxi…
Statistics of Stellar Populations of Star Clusters and Surrounding Fields in the Outer Disk of the Large Magellanic Cloud
J. F. C. Santos, A. E. Piatti, J. J. Claria +3
A comparative analysis of Washington color-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) for 14 star clusters and respective surrounding fields in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) outer disk is presen…

Eduardo Bica, Doug Geisler, Horacio Dottori +3
We present Washington system C,T_1 CMDs of 13 star clusters and their surrounding fields which lie in the outer parts of the LMC disk. Ages are determined by means of the magnitude…
Integrated Near-Infrared Colors of Star Clusters: Analysis of the Stochastic Effects on the IMF
João F. C. Santos, Jay A. Frogel
We examine the influence of stochastic effects on the integrated near-infrared light of star clusters with ages between 7.5<log(t)<9.25. To do this, we use stellar evolution models…
