The Magellanic Clouds as a template for the study of stellar populations and galaxy interactions
M. -R. L. Cioni, K. Bekki, G. Clementini +18
The Magellanic System represents one of the best places to study the formation and evolution of galaxies. Photometric surveys of various depths, areas and wavelengths have had a si…
The Conditions for Star Formation at Low Metallicity: Results from the LMC
J. M. Oliveira, J. Th van Loon, S. Stanimirovic
We present our recent work on the conditions under which star formation occurs in a metal-poor environment, the Large Magellanic Cloud ([Fe/H] ~ -0.4). Water masers are used as bea…
Star Formation in the Eagle Nebula and NGC 6611
J. M. Oliveira, R. D. Jeffries, J. Th van Loon
We present IZJHKL' photometry of the core of the cluster NGC 6611 in the Eagle Nebula. This photometry is used to constrain the Initial Mass Function (IMF) and the circumstellar di…
Massive Young Stellar Objects in the Large Magellanic Cloud: water masers and ESO-VLT 3-4 micron spectroscopy
J. M. Oliveira, J. Th van Loon, S. Stanimirovic +1
We investigate the conditions of star formation in the Large Magellanic Cloud. We have conducted a survey for water maser emission arising from massive young stellar objects in the…
ESO-VLT and Spitzer spectroscopy of IRAS05328-6827: a massive young stellar object in the Large Magellanic Cloud
Jacco Th. van Loon, J. M. Oliveira, P. R. Wood +10
We present the first thermal-infrared spectra of an extra-galactic Young Stellar Object (YSO), IRAS05328-6827 in the HII region LHA 120-N148 in the Large Magellanic Cloud. The obse…
