      We report a new ultra-faint stellar system found in Dark Energy Camera data from the first observing run of the Magellanic Satellites Survey (MagLiteS). MagLiteS J0644-5953 (Pictor II or Pic II) is a low surface brightness ...
    • The VMC survey - XX. Identification of new Cepheids in the Small Magellanic Cloud 

      Moretti, M. I.; Clementini, G.; Ripepi, V.; Marconi, M.; Rubele, S.; Cioni, M. R L; Muraveva, T.; Groenewegen, M. A T; Cross, N. J G; Ivanov, V. D.; Piatti, A. E.; de Grijs, R. (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. XIX. CLASSICAL CEPHEIDS in the SMALL MAGELLANIC CLOUD 

      Ripepi, V.; Marconi, M.; Moretti, M. I.; Clementini, G.; Cioni, M. R L; De Grijs, R.; Emerson, J. P.; Groenewegen, M. A T; Ivanov, V. D.; Piatti, A. E. (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 ...
