[40.08] The Stellar Content of Young Starburst Clusters

L. Drissen (Obs. du Mont Megantic, U. Laval)

I will present the result of recent investigations on the stellar content of young starburst clusters. A particular emphasis will be put on NGC 3603 in the Mily Way and NGC 2363 in the Magellanic galaxy NGC 2366, to illustrate (a) the kind of stars we find in these clusters; (b) the presence of low-mass stars in starbursts; (c) possible evidence of propagating star formation; (d) the detection of dust-enshrouded massive star clusters.
