AGB stars and red supergiants in the LMC as seen with DENIS

Abstract

The goal of this short communication is to evaluate the usefulness of DENIS for the study of stars on the Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) and red supergiants (RSG) in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). We try to answer two fundamental questions: (i) Can DENIS detect all the AGB stars and RSG in the LMC ? (ii) How can we identify these sources using only the I,J, and K bands ?
