TL;DR: The first science results, aimed at assessing the scientific quality of the VMC data, include an overview of the distribution of stars in colour-magnitude and colour-colour diagrams, the detection of planetary nebulae and stellar clusters, and the Ks band light-curves of variable stars.

TL;DR: In this article, the Magellanic clouds' variable stars were obtained from the EROS-2 and OGLE III/IV microlensing surveys and used for a detailed study of the system's three-dimensional geometry.

TL;DR: In this article, mass-loss rates and luminosities for a complete sample of AGB stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud, disentangling the C- and O-rich stellar populations were derived by fitting the models to the spectral energy distribution (SED) obtained by combining VMC data with existing optical, near-, and mid-infrared photometry.

TL;DR: In this article, the Magellanic Clouds system (VMC) was surveyed using the VISTA data flow system, which consists of the LMC, the SMC, the Bridge connecting the two galaxies and two fields in the Stream.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyse colour-Magnitude diagrams (CMDs) of catalogued star clusters located in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) from a Y JKs photometric data set obtained by the VISTA.
