Star formation is a hierarchical process, forming young stellar structures of star clusters, associations, and complexes over a wide range of scales. The star-forming complex in the bar region of the Large Magellanic Cloud is investigated with upper... Read More about The VMC Survey. XXVII.

The VISTA near-infrared YJKs survey of the Magellanic System (VMC) is collecting deep Ks-band time-series photometry of pulsating stars hosted by the two Magellanic Clouds and their connecting bridge. Here, we present Y, J, Ks light curves for a samp... Read More about The VMC survey – XXV. The 3D structure of the Small Magellanic Cloud from Classical Cepheids.

The Infrared Spectrograph (IRS) on the Spitzer Space Telescope observed nearly 800 point sources in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), taking over 1000 spectra. 197 of these targets were observed as part of the SAGE-Spec Spitzer Legacy program; the re...

Properties of CO$_2$ clathrate hydrates formed in the presence of MgSO$_4$ solutions with implications for icy moons (2017)
Journal Article
Safi, E., Thompson, S., Evans, A., Day, S., Murray, C., Parker, J., …Van Loon, J. T. (2017). Properties of CO$_2$ clathrate hydrates formed in the presence of MgSO$_4$ solutions with implications for icy moons. Astronomy & Astrophysics, 600(A88), https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/201629791

There is evidence to suggest that clathrate hydrates have a significant effect on the surface geology of icy bodies in the Solar System. However the aqueous environments believed to be present on these bodies are likely to be saline rather than pure...
