A 10 kpc stellar substructure at the edge of the Large Magellanic Cloud: Perturbed outer disc or evidence for tidal stripping? [PDF]
We report the discovery of a substantial stellar overdensity in the periphery of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), found using public imaging from the first year of the Dark Energy Survey.

The exceptionally powerful TeV γ-ray emitters in the Large Magellanic Cloud [PDF]
A light on the origin of cosmic rays There's a new lab for studying the origins of cosmic rays: our neighbor galaxy, the Large Magellanic Cloud. Astronomers are now making progress on this topic by examining the gamma rays that are produced when cosmic ...

Supergiant shells (SGSs) are the largest interstellar structures where heated and enriched gas flows into the host galaxy’s halo. The SGSs in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) are so close that their stars can be resolved with ground-based telescopes to ...

The Magellanic Clouds, Past, Present and Future - A Summary of IAU Symposium No. 190 [PDF]
Important problems to which we would like to find answers are: What are the distances to the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) and the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC)? What is the present distribution of stars, gas and dark matter in the Clouds, and how did it evolve?

THE CHEMICAL ENRICHMENT HISTORY OF THE LARGE MAGELLANIC CLOUD [PDF]
Ca II triplet spectroscopy has been used to derive stellar metallicities for individual stars in four LMC fields situated at galactocentric distances of 3\arcdeg, 5\arcdeg, 6\arcdeg\@ and 8\arcdeg\@ to the north of the Bar. Observed metallicity distributions show a well defined peak, with a tail toward low metallicities.

A LUMINOUS GAMMA-RAY BINARY IN THE LARGE MAGELLANIC CLOUD [PDF]
Gamma-ray binaries consist of a neutron star or a black hole interacting with a normal star to produce gamma-ray emission that dominates the radiative output of the system.

Morphology of stellar populations in the Magellanic Clouds using the VMC survey [PDF]
The Magellanic Clouds are nearby dwarf irregular galaxies that represent a unique laboratory for studying galaxy interactions. Their morphology and dynamics have been heavily influenced by their mutual interactions as well as with their interaction(s) with the Milky Way.

Deep view of the Large Magellanic Cloud with six years of Fermi -LAT observations [PDF]
The nearby Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) provides a rare opportunity of a spatially resolved view of an external star-forming galaxy in gamma-rays. The LMC was detected at 0.1-100GeV as an extended source with CGRO/EGRET and using early observations with ...
