Analysis of UBV photometry in selected area 133

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors interpret the de-reddened UBV data for the field SA 133 to deduce the stellar density and metallicity distribution functions, and the agreement of the luminosity function for dwarfs and sub-giants with the one of Hipparcos confirms the empirical method used for their separation.

Determination of Reddening and Age for Ten Large Magellanic Cloud Star Clusters from Integrated Spectroscopy

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented flux-calibrated integrated spectra in the optical range (3700-6800 A) obtained at Complejo Astronomico El Leoncito (CASLEO, Argentina) for a sample of 10 concentrated star clusters belonging to the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC).

Optical observations of a newly identified compact galaxy group near the Zone of Avoidance

TL;DR: In this paper, a new group of galaxies, CG J0247+44.9, was identified, consisting of six members, two of which are in close interaction (IRAS 02443+4437), which satisfies Hickson's criteria (Hickson 1997 for Compact Groups (CGs)).

The Stellar Populations of M32: Resolving the nearest elliptical with HST ACS/HRC

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented the deepest color-magnitude diagram (CMD) of M32 to date, obtained from deep (F435W, F555W) photometry of HST ACS/HRC images.

Reddening free distance determination via Cepheid variables

TL;DR: In this article, a long-term project initiated four years ago with the aim of establishing a consistent set of distances founded on ground-based photometry of Cepheid variables in the nearest late-type galaxies in the Local Group, or just beyond it is reported on.
