Literature data up until 2018 December are included. The identification of star clusters was carried out with digital atlases in various bands currently available in the Digitized Sky Survey (DSS) and the Machine Automatique a Mesurer pour l'Astronomie (MAMA) imaging surveys. In particular, we cross-identified recent cluster samples from the Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy (VISTA) near-infrared YJKs survey of the Magellanic System (VMC; Rubele+, 2015, J/MNRAS/449/639), Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment IV (OGLE IV; Sitek+ 2017, J/AcA/67/363), and Survey of the MAgellanic Stellar History (SMASH; Piatti 2017ApJ...834L..14P) surveys, confirming new clusters and pointing out equivalencies. A major contribution of the present catalog consists of the accurate central positions for clusters and small associations, including a new sample of 45 clusters or candidates in the SMC and 19 in the Magellanic Bridge, as well as a compilation of the most reliable age and metallicity values from the literature. A general catalog must also deal with the recent discoveries of 27 faint and ultra-faint star clusters and galaxies projected on the far surroundings of the Clouds, most of them from the Dark Energy Survey. The information on these objects has been complemented with photometric, spectroscopic, and kinematical follow-up data from the literature. The underluminous galaxies around the Magellanic System, still very few as compared to the predictions from {Lambda} Cold Dark Matter simulations, can bring constraints to galaxy formation and hierarchical evolution. Furthermore, we provide diagnostics, when possible, of the nature of the ultra-faint clusters, searching for borders of the Magellanic System extensions into the Milky Way gravitational potential.2020AJ....159...82Bhttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/AJ/159/82CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toB/ocl : Optically visible open clusters and Candidates (Dias+ 2002-2015)J/ApJS/101/41 : SMC and Bridge extended catalog (Bica+ 1995)J/AJ/112/2004 : CCD photometry of SMC cluster Kron 3 (Alcaino+ 1996)J/AcA/48/175 : OGLE SMC clusters (Pietrzynski+ 1998)J/AJ/116/2395 : BV photometry in five SMC clusters (Mighell+, 1998)J/A+A/345/430 : Abundances of 6 cool supergiants in NGC 330 (Hill, 1999)J/AJ/119/1214 : Census of star clusters in the SMC (Bica+, 2000)J/ApJ/562/303 : Old Stellar Populations of the SMC (Dolphin+ 2001)J/A+A/440/111 : Spectra of SMC star clusters (Piatti+, 2005)J/MNRAS/358/1215 : CT1 photometry of 10 SMC clusters (Piatti+, 2005)J/AJ/129/2701 : UBVRI photometry of SMC star clusters (Rafelski+, 2005)J/A+A/452/179 : Ages of SMC young clusters and field stars (Chiosi+, 2006)J/MNRAS/377/300 : CT1 photometry in 6 SMC star clusters (Piatti+, 2007)J/AJ/133/44 : NGC 346 HST VI photometry (Sabbi+, 2007)J/MNRAS/389/678 : Catalogue of extended obj. in Magellanic Clouds (Bica+,2008)J/AJ/136/1703 : Ridgelines of 6 intermediate-age SMC clusters (Glatt+, 2008)J/ApJ/681/290 : HST/ACS photometry in the SMC (Schmalzl+, 2008)J/AJ/138/517 : CaII spectroscopy of SMC red giants (Parisi+, 2009)J/A+A/517/A50 : Ages & luminosities of SMC/LMC star clusters (Glatt+, 2010)J/MNRAS/403/996 : Clusters and associations in SMC and LMC (Bonatto+, 2010)J/MNRAS/417/1559 : CT1T2 photometry in 14 SMC star clusters (Piatti+, 2011)J/ApJ/756/L32 : BVI photometry of SMC star cluster ESO 51-SC09 (Piatti,2012)J/MNRAS/425/3085 : CCD CT1 data of stars in the field of B119 (Piatti+, 2012)J/A+A/561/A93 : On the metallicity of open clusters.
