Infrared composition of the Large Magellanic Cloud
The evolution of galaxies and the history of star formation in the Universe
are among the most important topics in today's astrophysics. Especially, the
role of small, irregular galaxies in the star-formation history of the Universe
is not yet clear. Using the data from the AKARI IRC survey of the Large
Magellanic Cloud at 3.2, 7, 11, 15, and 24 {\mu}m wavelengths, i.e., at the
mid- and near-infrared, we have constructed a multiwavelength catalog
containing data from a cross-correlation with a number of other databases at
different wavelengths. We present the separation of different classes of stars
in the LMC in color-color, and color-magnitude, diagrams, and analyze their
contribution to the total LMC flux, related to point sources at different
infrared wavelengths
