TL;DR: In this article, the results of a photometric search aimed at discovering cool brown dwarfs in the Southern sky imaged at infrared wavelengths by the VISTA and the Wide Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) satellite mission are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Constraints in the circumstellar density distribution of massive Young Stellar Objects
TL;DR: In this article, the authors use a Monte Carlo code to generate synthetic near-IR reflection nebulae that resemble those (normally associated with a bipolar outflow cavity) seen towards massive young stellar objects (YSOs).
Journal ArticleDOI
