Star-formation history and X-ray binary populations: the case of the Large Magellanic Cloud [PDF]

, 2016
In the present work we investigate the link between high-mass X-ray binaries (HMXBs) and star formation in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), our nearest star-forming galaxy.

Stellar Population and Energy Feedback in the Supergiant Shell LMC 1

The Astronomical Journal
Supergiant shells (SGSs) are the largest interstellar structures in galaxies and inject hot enriched gas into galactic halos. We have studied SGS LMC 1 to determine quantitatively whether stellar energy feedback is adequate to power the formation of an ...

A 10 kpc stellar substructure at the edge of the Large Magellanic Cloud: Perturbed outer disc or evidence for tidal stripping? [PDF]

, 2015
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 Dark Energy Camera Magellanic Clouds Emission-line Survey

The Astrophysical Journal
We have used the Dark Energy Camera (DECam) on the CTIO Blanco 4 m telescope to perform a new emission-line survey of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) using narrowband H α and [S ii ] filters in addition to a continuum band to create pure emission-line ...

A LUMINOUS GAMMA-RAY BINARY IN THE LARGE MAGELLANIC CLOUD [PDF]

, 2016
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.

The Truncated Circumgalactic Medium of the Large Magellanic Cloud

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) is the nearest massive galaxy to the Milky Way (MW). Its circumgalactic medium (CGM) is complex and multiphase, containing both stripped H i structures like the Magellanic Stream and Bridge and a diffuse warm corona seen ...

H.E.S.S. observations of the Large Magellanic Cloud

, 2011
The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) is a satellite galaxy of the Milky Way at a distance of approximately 48 kpc. Despite its distance it harbours several interesting targets for TeV gamma-ray observations.

Molecular Clouds in the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds [PDF]

Highlights of Astronomy, 1989
To determine the distribution of molecular gas in the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (LMC and SMC), we made complete surveys in the J=1-0 transition of CO, of the central 6°×6° and 3°×2° areas of the LMC and SMC, respectively. The observations were made with the 1.2m Columbia Telescope at Cerro Tololo, which provides and angular resolution of 8.8 ...
