We present K-band integral field spectroscopic observations towards 17 massive young stellar objects (YSOs) in the low-metallicity Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) and two YSO candidates in the compact H?II regions N81 and N88 A (also in the SMC). These... Read More about K-band integral field spectroscopy and optical spectroscopy of massive young stellar objects in the Small Magellanic Cloud.

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 460(1), 383 - 395. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stw1000

We report the first search for new star clusters performed using the VISTA near-infrared YJKs Magellanic Clouds survey (VMC) data sets. We chose a pilot field of ~0.4 deg2 located in the South-west of the Small Magelllanic Cloud bar, where the star f... Read More about The VMC Survey - XXI.

Aims. In this study we use multi-epoch near-infrared observations from the VISTA survey of the Magellanic Cloud system (VMC) to measure the proper motions of different stellar populations in a tile of 1.5 deg2 in size in the direction of the Galactic...
