    Young and very young stars in NGC 3372, the Carina Nebula
    The advantages of using a telescope of large aperture, like the GTC, for mid-infrared imaging are demonstrated. Examples are given to compare the...

    Young Galaxy Candidates in the Hubble Frontier Fields. III. MACS J0717.5+3745
    In this paper we present the results of our search for and study of z≳ 6 galaxy candidates behind the third Frontier Fields (FFs) cluster, MACS J0717.5+3745...

    Young LMC clusters: the role of red supergiants and multiple stellar populations in their integrated light and CMDs
    The optical integrated spectra of three Large Magellanic Cloud young stellar clusters (NGC 1984, NGC 1994 and NGC 2011) exhibit concave continua and prominent...

    Young stellar population gradients in central cluster galaxies from NUV and optical spectroscopy
    Central cluster galaxies are the largest and most massive galaxies in the Universe. Although they host very old stellar populations, several studies found the...

    Young Stellar Populations and Star Clusters in NGC 1705
    We present Hubble Space Telescope (HST) photometry of the late-type dwarf galaxy NGC 1705 observed with the Wide-Field Planetary Camera 2 (WFPC2) in the F380W...

    Young stellar populations in type II quasars: timing the onset of star formation and nuclear activity
    Despite the emerging morphological evidence that luminous quasar-like active galactic nuclei (AGN) are triggered in galaxy mergers, the natures of the...

    Young Super Star Clusters in the Starburst of M82: The Catalog
    Recent results from the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) have resolved starbursts as collections of compact young stellar clusters. Here we present a photometric...

    Young, metal-enriched cores in early-type dwarf galaxies in the Virgo cluster based on colour gradients
    Early-type dwarf galaxies are not simply featureless, old objects, but were found to be much more diverse, hosting substructures and a variety of stellar...
