Background galaxies as reddening probes throughout the Magellanic Clouds
(2001) [Artigo de periódico]We study the spectral properties in the range 3600 Å - 6800 Å of the nuclear region of galaxies behind the Magellanic Clouds. The radial velocities clari ed the nature of the objects as background galaxies or extended ... -
Foreground and background dust in star cluster directions
(2000) [Artigo de periódico]This paper compares reddening values E(B-V) derived from the stellar content of 103 old open clusters and 147 globular clusters of the Milky Way with those derived from DIRBE/IRAS 100 μm dust emission in the same directions. ... -
New star clusters projected close to the galactic centre
(2000) [Artigo de periódico]Abstract. We carried out a systematic search for new star clusters in a field of 5 5 centred close to the Galactic Nucleus using the infrared JHKs 2MASS Survey archive. In addition we searched for embedded clusters in the ... -
NTT infrared imaging of star cluster candidates towards the central parts of the Galaxy
(2003) [Artigo de periódico]We address the issue whether the central parts of the Galaxy harbour young clusters other than Arches, Quintuplet and the Nuclear Young Cluster. A large sample of centrally projected cluster candidates has been recently ... -
On the calibration of the COBE/IRAS dust emission reddening maps
(2003) [Artigo de periódico]In this work we study the spectral properties (3600–6800 Å) of the nuclear region of early-type galaxies at low (|b| < 25◦), intermediate (including surroundings of the Magellanic Clouds) and high (South Polar Cap) Galactic ... -
The dust content and opacity of actively star-forming galaxies
(2000) [Artigo de periódico]We present far-infrared (FIR) photometry at 150 and 205 μm of eight low-redshift starburst galaxies obtained with the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) ISOPHOT. Five of the eight galaxies are detected in both wave bands, ...
