Katime; Bica, Eduardo Luiz Damiani; Sanmartim, David; Quint, Bruno C.; Fraga, Luciano (2023) [Artigo de periódico]
      The chemical evolution history of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) has been a matter of debate for decades. The challenges in understanding the SMC chemical evolution are related to a very slow star formation rate (SFR) ...
    • The VISCACHA survey : V. Rejuvenating three faint SMC clusters 

      Bica, Eduardo Luiz Damiani; Maia, Francisco F. S.; Oliveira, Raphael Augusto Pereira de; Dias, Bruno Moreira de Souza; Santos Junior, Joao Francisco Coelho dos; Rocha, João Pedro dos Santos; Kerber, Leandro de Oliveira; Carvalho, João Francisco Gardin de; Armond, Ana Cristina Moreira Machado Zadra; Parisi, M. C.; Souza, Stefano O.; Barbuy, Beatriz (2022) [Artigo de periódico]
      We present the analysis of three faint clusters of the Small Magellanic Cloud RZ 82, HW 42, and RZ 158. We employed the SOAR telescope instrument SAM with adaptive optics, allowing us to reach to V ∼ 23–24 mag, unprecedentedly, ...
