The VMC survey - XVIII : Radial dependence of the low-mass, 0.57-0.82 Msun stellar mass function in the galactic globular cluster 47 Tucanae
(2015-12-14)We use near-infrared observations obtained as part of the Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy (VISTA) Survey of the Magellanic Clouds (VMC), as well as two complementary Hubble Space Telescope (HST) data ... -
The VMC survey - XX. Identification of new Cepheids in the Small Magellanic Cloud
(2016-06-21)We present Ks-band light curves for 299 Cepheids in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) of which 288 are new discoveries that we have identified using multi-epoch near-infrared photometry obtained by the VISTA survey of the ... -
The VMC Survey - XXI. New star cluster candidates discovered from infrared photometry in the Small Magellanic Cloud
(2016-07-21)We report the first search for new star clusters performed using the VISTA near-infrared YJKs Magellanic Clouds survey (VMC) data sets. We chose a pilot field of ~0.4 deg2 located in the South-west of the Small Magelllanic ... -
The VMC survey I. Strategy and first data
(2011-03)Context: The new VISual and Infrared Telescope for Astronomy (VISTA) has started operations. Over its first five years it will be collecting data for six public surveys, one of which is the near-infrared YJK(s) VISTA survey ... -
The VMC survey II : A multi-wavelength study of LMC planetary nebulae and their mimics
(2011)The VISTA Magellanic Cloud (VMC) survey is assembling a deep, multi-epoch atlas of Y JKs photometry across the Magellanic Clouds. Prior to the VMC survey only the brightest Magellanic Cloud PNe (MCPNe) were accessible at ... -
The VMC survey III : Mass-loss rates and luminosities of LMC AGB stars
(2012-01)Context. Asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars are major contributors to both the chemical enrichment of the interstellar medium and the integrated light of galaxies. Despite its importance, the AGB is one of the least ... -
The VMC survey VI : Quasars behind the Magellanic system
(2013-01)Context. The number and spatial distribution of confirmed quasi-stellar objects (QSOs) behind the Magellanic system is limited. This undermines their use as astrometric reference objects for different types of studies. ... -
THE VMC SURVEY. XIX. CLASSICAL CEPHEIDS in the SMALL MAGELLANIC CLOUD
(2016-06-01)The VISTA near-infrared YJK s survey of the Magellanic Clouds System (VMC) is collecting deep K s-band time-series photometry of pulsating variable stars hosted by the two Magellanic Clouds and their connecting Bridge. In ... -
The VMC survey: IV : the LMC star formation history and disk geometry from four VMC tiles
(2012-01)We derive the star formation history (SFH) for several regions of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), using deep near-infrared data from the VISTA near-infrared YJK s survey of the Magellanic system (VMC). The regions include ... -
Vocem
(Music Haven, 2020-12-01)Vocem is a musical composition published by Music Haven (December 2020) which explores a new concept of hyper-immersive music. Immersive sound is with us all the time as our ears receive sound from multiple sources and ... -
Voice Biometrics over the Internet in the Framework of COST Action 275
(2004-04)The emerging field of biometric authentication over the Internet requires both robust person authentication and secure computer network protocols. This paper presents investigations of vocal biometric person authentication ... -
VOICE BIOMETRICS UNDER MISMATCHED NOISE CONDITIONS
(2011-03-23)This thesis describes research into effective voice biometrics (speaker recognition) under mismatched noise conditions. Over the last two decades, this class of biometrics has been the subject of considerable research due ... -
Voices from a reflective space : teacher educators reflect on practice
(Rowman and Littlefield, 2008)This text offers advice to teachers on pursuing professional development through book clubs, through Critical Friends Groups, and research groups. It discusses how action research has been utilised by teachers in a particular ... -
