TL;DR: In this article, the authors obtained VLT/FORS2 spectra in the region of the nIR CaII triplet lines for 80 candidate red giant branch stars and obtained line-of-sight velocities and metallicities for 54 bona fide member stars.
Journal ArticleDOI
The red extended structure of IC 10, the nearest blue compact galaxy
TL;DR: The Local Group starburst galaxy IC10 is the closest example of a blue compact galaxy as discussed by the authors, and the spatial distribution of its resolved young, intermediate and old stellar populations to large radius and low effective surface brightness levels.

TL;DR: In this paper, the INT Photometric HSurvey of the Northern Galactic Plane (IPHAS) point-source data from IPHAS is simulated using a spectrophotometric library of stellar spectra and available filter transmission profiles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Young stars between the Magellanic Clouds. II. An association on the far-west side of the LMC halo
TL;DR: In this article, a group of blue stars located in the southwest LMC halo, 6.4 deg from its optical center, was photometrically analyzed and shown to be the last of a string of young stellar aggregates extending from the wing of the SMC to the LMC.
