Properties of the Magellanic Corona [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We characterize the Magellanic Corona, the warm gaseous halo around the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). The Corona is a key ingredient in the formation of the Magellanic Stream and has recently been observed in high-ion absorption around the LMC.

Infrared composition of the Large Magellanic Cloud [PDF]
Earth, Planets and Space, 2013 The evolution of galaxies and the history of star formation in the Universe are among the most important topics in today’s astrophysics. Especially, the role of small, irregular galaxies in the star-formation history of the Universe is not yet clear ...

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 Large Magellanic Cloud and the Distance Scale [PDF]
Astrophysics and Space Science, 2011 The Magellanic Clouds, especially the Large Magellanic Cloud, are places where multiple distance indicators can be compared with each other in a straight-forward manner at considerable precision. We here review the distances derived from Cepheids, Red Variables, RR Lyraes, Red Clump Stars and Eclipsing Binaries, and show that the results from these ...

Neutralino annihilation in the Large Magellanic Cloud [PDF]
AIP Conf.Proc.745:434-439,2005, 2005 I present results with respect to the gamma-ray and synchrotron fluxes due to neutralino annihilation in the Large Magellanic Cloud based on Tasitsiomi et al., Astrop. Phys. 21, 637 (2004).

Dark Matter Annihilations in the Large Magellanic Cloud [PDF]
Nucl.Phys.Proc.Suppl. 35 (1994) 148-149, 1993 The flat rotation curve obtained for the outer star clusters of the Large Magellanic Cloud is suggestive of an LMC dark matter halo. From the composite HI and star cluster rotation curve, I estimate the parameters of an isothermal dark matter halo added to a `maximum disk.' I then examine the possibility of detecting high energy gamma-rays from non ...

The Phanerozoic climate. [PDF]
Ann N Y Acad Sci, 2023 We review the long‐term climate variations during the last 540 million years (Phanerozoic Eon). We first summarize the geological and geochemical datasets available for reconstruction of long‐term climate variations. We then explore the main drivers of climate that appear to explain a large fraction of these climatic oscillations. The first is the long‐

Understanding climate change impacts on biome and plant distributions in the Andes: Challenges and opportunities. [PDF]
J Biogeogr, 2022 Abstract Aim Climate change is expected to impact mountain biodiversity by shifting species ranges and the biomes they shape. The extent and regional variation in these impacts are still poorly understood, particularly in the highly biodiverse Andes. Regional syntheses of climate change impacts on vegetation are pivotal to identify and guide research ...

Kinematic Decomposition of the H i Gaseous Component in the Large Magellanic Cloud
The Astrophysical Journal, 2022 We perform a profile analysis of the combined H i data cube of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) from observations with the Australia Telescope Compact Array and the Parkes radio telescope. For the profile analysis, we use a newly developed algorithm that
