- Description:
- We present near-IR (NIR) J, H, and Ks images and K-band spectroscopy of two newly discovered stellar clusters at different stages of evolution. Our spectra suggest the presence of massive young stellar objects in the heavily embedded cluster in the star-forming region near radio source G353.4-0.4 and an O5-O6V star in the cluster near radio source G305+00.2.

- Description:
- The second largest H II region in the Large Magellanic Cloud, N11B (LHA 120-N 11B) has been surveyed in the near-IR. We present JHKs images of the N11B nebula. These images are combined with CO (1->0) emission-line data and with archival New Technology Telescope and Hubble Space Telescope WFPC2 optical images to address the star formation activity of the region. IR photometry of all the IR sources detected is given. We confirm that a second generation of stars is currently forming in the N11B region. Our IR images show the presence of several bright IR sources that appear to be located toward the molecular cloud as seen from the CO emission in the area.

- Description:
- We study the Large Magellanic Cloud Papillon Nebula (N 159-5), a conspicuous High Excitation Blob (HEB) lying in the star forming complex N 159. Using JHK near-infrared photometry obtained at the ESO VLT with the ISAAC camera, we examine the stellar populations associated with the Papillon, tracing their history using stellar evolution models. Two populations are revealed: one composed of young, massive stars with an age ~3Myr, and a second consisting of older lower mass stars of age spreading between 1 and 10Gyr. We analyze the properties of those populations and discuss their significance in the context of N 159. We also estimate that if the star at the center of the Papillon is single its initial mass is ~50 solar masses and it is affected by an extinction Av~7mag.

- Description:
- We present J, H, and Ks photometry of the Orion Nebula Cluster (ONC) obtained at the CTIO/Blanco 4m telescope at Cerro Tololo with the Infrared Side Port Imager camera. From the observations we have assembled a catalog of about ~7800 sources distributed over an area of approximately 30'x40', the largest of any survey deeper than the Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS) in this region. The catalog provides absolute coordinates accurate to about 0.15-arcsec and 3{sigma} photometry in the 2MASS system down to J~=19.5mag, H~=18.0mag, Ks~=18.5mag, enough to detect planetary size objects 1Myr old under A_V_~=10mag of extinction at the distance of the Orion Nebula.

- JHKs photometry in Praesepe
- Short Name:

- Description:
- We have used the Two Micron All Sky Survey and Palomar Observatory Sky Survey photographic plates, digitized by the US Naval Observatory's Precision Measuring Machine program, to derive proper motions over a 100 square degree, spatially complete region centered on the Praesepe open cluster. Proper-motion measurements spanned the magnitude range R~12-19, which covers most of the lower main sequence in Praesepe. The incidence of H{alpha} emission from moderate-resolution (~2600), red spectroscopy of 434 faint candidate members and 126 field control stars demonstrates that ~60%-80% of candidates within 2{deg} of the cluster center are genuine Praesepe members.

- Short Name:

- Publisher:

- Description:
- JHKs photometry is presented from a 3.5yr survey of the central regions of the irregular galaxy NGC 6822. The morphology of the colour-magnitude and colour-colour diagrams is discussed with particular reference to M-, S- and C-type asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars and to M supergiants. Mean JHKs magnitudes and periods are given for 11 O-rich and 50 presumed C-rich Miras. Data are also listed for 27 large-amplitude AGB stars without periods and for 69 small-amplitude AGB variables. The slope of the bolometric period-luminosity relation for the C-rich Miras is in good agreement with that in the Large Magellanic Cloud. Distance moduli derived from the C- and O-rich Miras are in agreement with other estimates. The period distribution of C-rich Miras in NGC 6822 is similar to that in the Magellanic Clouds, but differs from that in the dwarf spheroidals in the Local Group. In the latter there is a significant proportion of large-amplitude, short-period variables indicating a population producing old carbon-rich AGB stars.

- Description:
- We report the discovery of a new young stellar cluster and molecular cloud located in the far outer Galaxy, seen towards IRAS 06361-0142, and we characterise their properties. Near-infrared images obtained with VLT/ISAAC through JHK filters, millimetre line observations of CO(1-0) obtained with SEST, and VLA 6cm continuum maps obtained from archive data.

- Description:
- We present high-quality near-infrared photometry of four bulge metal-rich globular clusters, namely: NGC 6304, NGC 6569, NGC 6637 and NGC 6638. By using the observed Colour-Magnitude Diagrams we derived a photometric estimates of the cluster reddening and distance. We performed a detailed analysis of the Red Giant Branch, presenting a complete description of morphologic parameters and evolutionary features (Bump and Tip). Photometric estimates of the cluster metallicity have been obtained by using the updated set of relations (published by our group) linking the metal abundance to a variety of near-Infrared indices measured along the Red Giant Branch. The detection of the Red Giant Branch Bump and the Tip is also presented and briefly discussed.

- Description:
- We present the results of a J, H, and Ks photometric monitoring campaign of a 0.72{deg}x6{deg} area centered on the Chamaeleon I star-forming region. Data were obtained on 15 separate nights over a 4 month time interval, from January to May 2000, using the Two Micron All Sky Survey south telescope. Out of a total of 34,539 sources brighter than the photometric completeness limits (J=16.0, H=15.2, and Ks=14.8), 95 exhibit near-infrared variability in one or more bands. The variables can be grouped into a population of bright, red objects that are associated with the Chamaeleon I association and a population of faint, blue variables that are dispersed over the full 6{deg} of the survey and are likely field stars or older pre-main-sequence stars unrelated to the present-day Chamaeleon I molecular cloud. Ten new candidate members of Chamaeleon I, including eight brown dwarf candidates, have been identified based on variability and/or near-infrared-excess emission in the J-H versus H-Ks color-color diagram. We also provide a compendium of astrometry and J, H, and Ks photometry for previously identified members and candidate members of Chamaeleon I.
