Scientific paper

We present the results of near-infrared imaging simulations of young star-forming regions in the Magellanic Clouds to be observed with the European Extremely Large Telescope (E-ELT). The simulated J,H,K-band images show that we should be able to obtain nearly complete samples of young brown dwarfs above the deuterium burning limit (M > 13 MJup) in low-mass star-forming regions in the Clouds. Moreover, very young giant planet-mass objects in the Clouds should be detectable with the E-ELT under favourable conditions.
