Distance to the Large Magellanic Cloud: The RR Lyrae Stars [PDF]
, 2000 New photometry and spectroscopy for more than a hundred RR Lyrae stars in two fields located close to the bar of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) are used to derive new accurate estimates of the average magnitude, the local reddening, the luminosity ...

Relations between Molecular Cloud Structure Sizes and Line Widths in the Large Magellanic Cloud [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal, 2019 We present a comparative study of the size–line width relation for substructures within six molecular clouds in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) mapped with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array.

An ALMA View of Molecular Filaments in the Large Magellanic Cloud. I. The Formation of High-mass Stars and Pillars in the N159E-Papillon Nebula Triggered by a Cloud–Cloud Collision [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal, 2018 We present ALMA observations of CO isotopes and 1.3 mm continuum emission toward the N159E-Papillon Nebula in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). The spatial resolution is 0.″25–0.″28 (0.06–0.07 pc), which is a factor of 3 higher than previous ALMA ...

Infrared Properties of Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars in Our Galaxy and the Magellanic Clouds [PDF]
, 2019 We investigate infrared properties of asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars in our Galaxy and the Magellanic Clouds using various infrared observational data and theoretical models. We use catalogs for the sample of 4996 AGB stars in our Galaxy and about 39,000 AGB stars in the Magellanic Clouds from the available literature.

Discovery of 14 radio pulsars in a survey of the Magellanic Clouds [PDF]
Astrophys.J.649:235-242,2006, 2006 A systematic survey of the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds for radio pulsars using the Parkes radio telescope and the 20-cm multibeam receiver has resulted in the discovery of 14 pulsars and the redetection of five of the eight previously known spin-powered pulsars believed to lie in the Magellanic Clouds.

N-body Simulations of the Small Magellanic Cloud and the Magellanic Stream [PDF]
, 1995 An extensive set of N-body simulations has been carried out on the gravitational interaction of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) with the Galaxy and the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). The SMC is assumed to have been a barred galaxy with a disc-to-halo mass ratio of unity before interaction and modelled by a large number of self-gravitating particles ...

Statistical Analysis of Supernova Remnants in the Large Magellanic Cloud [PDF]
, 2017 We construct the most complete sample of supernova remnants (SNRs) in any galaxy—the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) SNR sample. We study their various properties such as spectral index (α), size, and surface brightness.

The Distances of the Magellanic Clouds [PDF]
, 1998 The present status of our knowledge of the distances to the Magellanic Clouds is evaluated from a post-Hipparcos perspective. After a brief summary of the effects of structure, reddening, age and metallicity, the primary distance indicators for the Large Magellanic Cloud are reviewed: The SN 1987A ring, Cepheids, RR Lyraes, Mira variables, and ...

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 ...

Low-excitation blobs in the Magellanic Clouds [PDF]
, 2006 Aims : We study an unknown, or very poorly known, interstellar HII component in the Magellanic Clouds. This is the first study ever devoted to this class of objects, which we call Low-excitation blobs (LEBs). Methods : We used low-dispersion spectroscopy carried out at ESO to obtain emission line intensities of Ha, Hb, and [OIII] (4959+5007) for 15 ...
