We present accurate and deep multi-band ($g,r,i$) photometry of the Local Group dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 6822. The images were collected with wide field cameras at 2m/4m- (INT,CTIO,CFHT) and 8m-class telescopes (SUBARU) covering a 2…
The metallicity gradient and the stellar distribution within the Local Group dwarf galaxy NGC 6822 has been studied photometrically using asymptotic branch stars (AGB). In order to study the stellar and metallicity distribution, the carbon-…
NGC 6822 is an irregular dwarf galaxy and part of the Local Group. Its close proximity and apparent isolation provide a unique opportunity to study galactic evolution without any obvious strong external influences. This paper aims to study…
We present a detailed photometric study of the dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 6822 aimed at investigating the properties of its stellar populations and, in particular, the presence of stellar radial gradients. Our goal is to analyse the stellar…
The nearby ($\sim$500 kpc) metal-poor ([Fe/H] $\approx$ -1.2; $Z$ $\approx$ 30% $Z_{\odot}$) star-forming galaxy NGC 6822 has a metallicity similar to systems at the epoch of peak star formation. Through identification and study of dusty…
We present spectroscopy of two clusters in the dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 6822. From these we deduce an age for Cluster VII of 11 Gyr and [Fe/H] = -1.95 +/- 0.15 dex. Cluster VII appears to be an analog of the metal-poor galactic globular…
We present a comprehensive analysis of the globular cluster (GC) system of the Local Group dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 6822. Our study is based on homogeneous optical and near-IR photometry, as well as long-slit spectroscopic observations…
Images of five fields in the Local Group dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 6822 obtained with the {\it Hubble Space Telescope} in the F555W and F814W filters are presented. Photometry for the stars in these images was extracted using the…
Observations in the IJKs wave bands covering the central 20'x20' of the Local Group galaxy NGC 6822 have been performed from the William Herschel Telescope in La Palma. They have allowed us to characterize, for the first time in the…
We have previously established, from a carbon star survey, that the Local Group dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 6822 is much larger than its central bright core. Four MegaCam fields are acquired to survey a 2$^\circ\times$ 2$^\circ$ area centred…
We present a comprehensive study of the stellar population and the interstellar medium in NGC 6822 using high-quality \HI data (obtained with the Australia Telescope Compact Array) and optical broad/narrow-band data (obtained with Subaru…
Aims: We calibrate spectroscopically the C- versus (vs.) M-type asymptotic giant branch (AGB) star selection made using near-IR photometry, and investigate the spatial distribution of the C/M ratio in NGC 6822, based on low resolution…
We have observed the center of the Local Group dwarf irregular galaxy IC 1613 with WFPC2 aboard the Hubble Space Telescope in the F439W, F555W, and F814W filters. We find a dominant old stellar population (aged ~7 Gyr), identifiable by the…
(Abridged) The chemical behaviour of an ample sample of PNe in NGC6822 is analyzed. Spectrophotometric data of 11 PNe and two H II regions were obtained with the OSIRIS spectrograph attached to the Gran Telescopio Canarias. Data for other…
We aim to derive the chemical behavior of a significant sample of PNe and HII regions in the irregular galaxy NGC 6822 The selected objects are distributed in different zones of the galaxy. Due to the faintness of PNe and HII regions in NGC…
We have obtained the first high resolution spectra of individual stars in the dwarf irregular galaxy, NGC 6822. The spectra of the two A-type supergiants were obtained at the VLT and Keck Observatories, using UVES and HIRES, respectively. A…
We present deep $BVI$ observations of the dwarf irregular galaxy UKS1927-177 in Sagittarius. Statistically cleaned $V$, $(B-I)$ CMDs clearly display the key evolutionary features in this galaxy. Previously detected C stars are located in…
The star formation histories of four fields within the Local Group dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 6822 are presented. Each of the fields was imaged by the WFPC2 aboard the {\it Hubble Space Telescope} and were used to obtain $VI$…
NGC 6822 is an isolated dwarf irregular galaxy in the local group at a distance of 490 kpc. In this paper, we present the star formation history (SFH) within a field with a radius of 3 kpc, beyond the optical body of the galaxy (1.2 kpc).…
JHKs photometry is presented from a 3.5 year survey of the central regions of the irregular galaxy NGC6822. The morphology of the colour-magnitude and colour-colour diagrams is discussed with particular reference to M, S and C-type AGB…
