The ISOGAL project is an infrared survey of specific regions sampling the Galactic Plane selected to provide information on Galactic structure,stellar populations,stellar mass-loss and the recent star formation history of the inner disk and…

The ionising radiation of young and massive stars is a crucial form of stellar feedback. Most ionising (Lyman-continuum; LyC, $\lambda < 912A$) photons are absorbed close to the stars that produce them, forming compact HII regions, but some…

This work presents a description of the scientific goals and objectives of OPTIMus (OPTical, Infrared, Millimeter survey of massive star-forming regions), a survey of massive star-forming regions in the optical, infrared, and millimeter…
