Infrared Surveys, Magellanic Clouds

Scientific paper

We are surveying the Large Magellanic Cloud and the Small Magellanic Cloud in the near-infrared wavelengths, J, H, and Ks bands. The 10σ limiting magnitudes of the survey are J~19, H~18, and Ks~17 mag, which correspond to the magnitudes of Herbig Ae/Be stars with masses as low as ~3Msolar in the Clouds. The photometric and positional accuracy of the survey will be 0.03 mag and 0.1 arcsec, respectively. We will publish a point source catalog of the Magellanic Clouds at the end of 2005.
