A DIPOLE ON THE SKY: PREDICTIONS FOR HYPERVELOCITY STARS FROM THE LARGE MAGELLANIC CLOUD [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We predict the distribution of hypervelocity stars (HVSs) ejected from the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), under the assumption that the dwarf galaxy hosts a central massive black hole (MBH).

CLUSTERING OF LOCAL GROUP DISTANCES: PUBLICATION BIAS OR CORRELATED MEASUREMENTS? I. THE LARGE MAGELLANIC CLOUD [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The distance to the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) represents a key local rung of the extragalactic distance ladder yet the galaxy's distance modulus has long been an issue of contention, in particular in view of claims that most newly determined distance ...

An H I Aperture Synthesis Mosaic of the Large Magellanic Cloud

open access: yes, 1998
We present the results of an H I aperture synthesis mosaic of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), made by combining data from 1344 separate pointing centers using the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA). The resolution of the mosaicked images is 1.′0 (

Galactic Winds Of The Large Magellanic Cloud

open access: yes, 2017
In the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), galaxy interactions have triggered intense star formation throughout its disk. Using UV Hubble Space Telescope (HST) absorption-line observations towards an AGN and a LMC disk star projected only 100 pc away, we find gaseous outflows that are relatively symmetric in kinematics and properties on both sides of the ...

A review of the distance and structure of the Large Magellanic Cloud [PDF]

open access: yesNew Astronomy Reviews, 2004
The debate about the distance to the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) has an epic history full of controversial and dramatic claims (i.e., see review by Walker 2003), and yet in recent years a standard distance modulus has emerged due primarily to the completion of the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Key Project to measure the Hubble constant (Preedman et al.

The Truncated Circumgalactic Medium of the Large Magellanic Cloud

open access: yesThe 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 ...

NGC 1856: Using Machine Learning Techniques to Uncover Detailed Stellar Abundances from MUSE Data

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We present the first application of the novel approach based on data-driven machine learning methods applied to Multi-Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) field data to derive stellar abundances of star clusters.

Supernova Remnants In The Magellanic Clouds [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
We present initial results of an ongoing study of the supernova remnants (SNRs) and candidates in the Magellanic Clouds. Some 108 objects in both Clouds are considered to be either an SNR or a reliable candidate. This represents the most complete sample of known SNRs in any galaxy. therefore, this study allows us to study SNR population properties such
