- The paper is based on the Survey of the MAgellanic History (SMASH) in which I am co-PI, leading the studies of stellar populations in the Small Magellanic Cloud. For this paper I conducted tests on the colour-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) of the object to address the age and metallicity. I overlapped isochrones and ran tests on the star formation history of the system (not included but a sanity check for the metallicity and age). Figure 1 shows the CMDs with isochrones as well as the selection box used for the analysis. I contributed to the writing of the manuscript.
