Descripción
The wide-field spectrographs 4MOST and MOONS are expected to enter operations in late 2024 at the ESO Paranal Observatory. These upcoming survey facilities will play an important role in various fields over the next decade. In particular, both will host surveys aimed at observing Local Group (LG) galaxies. We describe how their scientific performances complement Gaia and other spectroscopic surveys in the field of nearby galaxy kinematics, and provide an overview of the planned surveys that focus on LG galaxy kinematics. We outline the policies for community access to data and observing time, which is different for the two instruments. The contribution concludes with a summary of the main scientific goals of MOONS and 4MOST survey science regarding the LG galaxy masses and dynamics.

    Star Formation History of the Small Magellanic Cloud: the shell-like structure
    We present the spatially resolved star formation history (SFH) of a shell-like structure located in the northeastern Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). We quantitatively obtain the SFH using unprecedented deep photometric data (g ∼ 24 magnitude) from the SMASH survey and colour-magnitude diagram (CMD) fitting techniques. We consider, for the first time

    This is major release with several infrastructural changes that will make future development of dynesty easier, as well as significant speedups. The release also deprecated some rarely used options. Major refactor of the code that makes it easier to add new samplers. Major speedup of the uniform sampler when sampling in parallel You can now provide
