Revisiting Newly Large Magellanic Cloud Age-gap Star Clusters [PDF]
The Astronomical Journal, 2021 Abstract Recently, a noticeable number of new star clusters was identified in the outskirts of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) populating the so-called star-cluster age gap, a space of time (∼4–12 Gyr) where the only known star cluster is up-to-date ESO 121-SC 03.

Spectral Studies of Super‐Eddington Accreting Neutron Stars in the Magellanic Clouds
Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 346, Issue 1, January 2025.ABSTRACT Major outbursts of BeXRBs offer a unique laboratory for studying accretion onto magnetized neutron stars (NSs) over a large dynamic range. The accreting material is entrained from the accretion disk by the strong magnetic field, and then channeled onto the NS, forming a so‐called accretion column (AC).

Molecular Clouds Associated with the Type Ia SNR N103B in the Large Magellanic Cloud [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal, 2018 N103B is a Type Ia supernova remnant (SNR) in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). We carried out new 12CO(J = 3–2) and 12CO(J = 1–0) observations using ASTE and ALMA.

Dust in the Large Magellanic Cloud [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1973 A brief review of extinction effects is followed by a discussion of new Cerro Tololo Schmidt plates. They were exposed on parts of the LMC with filters which reveal the presence or absence of a continuum, such as one scattered on dust, in H ii regions. The results are presented in comparison with the Orion nebula which was observed in the same way. The

The Molecular Cloud Population of the Large Magellanic Cloud [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2012 AbstractWe have mapped an extensive sample of molecular clouds in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) at 11 pc resolution in the CO(1-0) line as part of the Magellanic Mopra Assessment (MAGMA). We identify clouds as regions of connected CO emission and determine their sizes, line widths, and fluxes.

People and Nature, Volume 6, Issue 6, Page 2480-2493, December 2024.Abstract To advance the theoretical and practical underpinnings for nature therapies, i.e. nature exposure as a means to improve mental health, we compared the most memorable sensory experiences reported by forest tourists in Australia, Chile, China and Japan. Sensory experiences are a fundamental driver of the psychological effects of nature exposure.

THE PANCHROMATIC VIEW OF THE MAGELLANIC CLOUDS FROM CLASSICAL CEPHEIDS. I. DISTANCE, REDDENING, AND GEOMETRY OF THE LARGE MAGELLANIC CLOUD DISK [PDF]
, 2016 We present a detailed investigation of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) disk using classical Cepheids. Our analysis is based on optical (I, V; OGLE-IV), near-infrared (NIR: J, H, ) and mid-infrared (MIR: w1; WISE) mean magnitudes.

Chemical Evolution of the Universe and its Consequences for Gravitational‐Wave Astrophysics
Annalen der Physik, Volume 536, Issue 2, February 2024.Population properties of double compact object mergers (especially binary black holes) are sensitive to the metallicity dependent cosmic star formation history. The uncertainty of this quantity cannot be ignored and makes the interpretation of current gravitational wave observations difficult.

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement SeriesPeriod–luminosity (PL) relations of long-period variables (LPVs) are a powerful tool to map the distances of stars in our Galaxy, and are typically calibrated using stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC).

Threading the Magellanic Needle: Hypervelocity Stars Trace the Past Location of the LMC
The Astrophysical Journal LettersRecent discoveries have shown that a population of hypervelocity stars (HVSs) originates from the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). We use three such HVSs as dynamical tracers to constrain the past orbit of the LMC.
