Resumen:
The VISCACHA Survey is an ongoing project based on deep, high quality photometric observations of low mass (M <10 4 M ) Magellanic Cloud star clusters located preferentially in the outermost regions of these galaxies, collected using the SOARAdaptive Module Imager (SAMI). By homogeneously determining their astrophysical parameters (e.g. ages, metallicities, distances,masses, structural properties), the survey aims at investigating the interplay between the galactic environment and the clusters’evolution and at deriving the star formation history and chemical enrichment at the periphery of these galaxies. The survey’s dataprocessing and early results are presented.
