The Spitzer Surveying the Agents of Galaxy Evolution (SAGE) survey has allowed the identification and analysis of significant samples of Young Stellar Object (YSO) candidates in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). However, the angular resolution of Spi... Read More about Integral field spectroscopy of massive young stellar objects in the N113 H II region in the Large Magellanic Cloud.

Context. In this work we analyse colour-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) of catalogued star clusters located in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), from a YJKs photometric data set obtained by the Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy (VISTA) su...

The lithium depletion boundary in NGC 2547 as a test of pre-main-sequence evolutionary models (2005)
Journal Article

Intermediate resolution spectroscopy from the ESO Very Large Telescope is analysed for 63 photometrically selected low-mass (0.08-0.30 Msun) candidates of the open cluster NGC 2547. We have confirmed membership for most of these stars using radial ve... Read More about The lithium depletion boundary in NGC 2547 as a test of pre-main-sequence evolutionary models.

Circumstellar discs around solar-mass stars in NGC 6611 (2005)
Journal Article

We have performed IZJHKL' observations in NGC 6611, the young cluster that ionises the Eagle Nebula. We have discovered a rich pre-main sequence concentrated around the O-stars in the cluster. As measured by their L'-band excesses, at least 58% +/- 5... Read More about Circumstellar discs around solar-mass stars in NGC 6611.

An L'-band survey for circumstellar discs around low-mass stars in the young σ Orionis cluster (2004)
Journal Article

We present new K- and L'-band imaging of a representative sample of members of the young 3-5 Myr old sigma Orionis cluster. We identified objects with (K-L') excess by analysing colour-colour diagrams and comparing the observations with empirical mai...

We present the results of a spectroscopic survey of X-ray selected, low-mass candidate members of the young open cluster NGC 2547. Using a combination of photometry, spectroscopic indices and radial velocities we refine our candidate list and then us...

We present the results of a photometric and spectroscopic survey of cool M dwarf candidates in the young open cluster NGC 2547. Using the 2dF fiber spectrograph, we have searched for the luminosity at which lithium remains unburned in an attempt to c... Read More about The lithium depletion boundary and the age of NGC 2547.
