    Basic parameters of three star clusters in the Small Magellanic Cloud: Kron 11, Kron 63 and NGC 121
    We present observations for three star clusters, Kron 11, Kron 63 and NGC 121, in the Small Magellanic Cloud. We have studied their structure and derived their...

    Five young star clusters in the outer region of the Small Magellanic Cloud
    Colour-magnitude diagrams in the Washington system are presented for the first time for five star clusters projected on to the outer region of the Small...

    The Internal Proper Motion Kinematics of NGC 346: Past Formation and Future Evolution
    We investigate the internal kinematics of the young star-forming region NGC 346 in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). We used two epochs of deep F555W and F814W...

    The Second Data Release of the Survey of the MAgellanic Stellar History (SMASH)
    The Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (LMC and SMC) are the largest satellite galaxies of the Milky Way and close enough to allow for a detailed exploration of...

    Two newly identified, relatively old star clusters in the Small Magellanic Cloud
    We present the results on the age and metallicity estimates of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) clusters L110, L112 and L113 obtained from CCD Washington CT1...
