The detection of an older population in the Magellanic Bridge [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The Magellanic system comprises the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), and the less frequently observed Magellanic Bridge and Magellanic Stream. The Bridge is traced by neutral gas and has an observed stellar component, while

New Understanding of Large Magellanic Cloud Structure, Dynamics, and Orbit from Carbon Star Kinematics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We formulate a new and coherent understanding of the structure and dynamics of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) and its orbit around and interaction with the Milky Way.

THE STUDY OF GALACTIC BEAT CEPHEIDS WITH APPLICATION OF ITS RESULTS TO THOSE IN THE MAGELLANIC CLOUDS

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2014
A thorough study of the correlation between P1=P0 ratio, fundamental period, and chemical composition (abundances of metals that compose Z) was conducted to investigate the significance of the iron-peak elements on the ratio. The results suggested a more

An Unbiased CO Survey Toward the Northern Region of the Small Magellanic Cloud with the Atacama Compact Array. II. CO Cloud Catalog

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The nature of molecular clouds and their statistical behavior in subsolar metallicity environments are not fully explored yet. We analyzed data from an unbiased CO ( J = 2–1) survey at the spatial resolution of ∼2 pc in the northern region of the Small ...

Chemical Evolution in the Large Magellanic Cloud [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We present a new input parameter set of the Pagel model (Pagel & Tautvai$\rm \breve{s}$ien$\rm \dot{e}$ 1998) for the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) in order to reproduce the observations, including the star formation rate (SFR) history.

The Large Magellanic Cloud stellar content with SMASH [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2020
The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) is the closest and most studied example of an irregular galaxy. Among its principal defining morphological features, its off-centred bar and single spiral arm stand out, defining a whole family of galaxies known as the ...

Detached Binaries in the Large Magellanic Cloud [PDF]

open access: yesHighlights of Astronomy, 2004
Analysis of the radial-velocity and light curves of detached eclipsing binaries allows to derive stellar masses and radii and, in consequence, enables to find their distances. The method has been already applied to several LMC binaries, but in order to have the distance to the LMC determined with good accuracy, the parameters need to be known for a ...

Chemical Composition of RM_1-390 - Large Magellanic Cloud Red Supergiant [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2017
A high resolution spectroscopic observation of the red supergiant star RM_1-390 in the Large Magellanic Cloud was made from a 3.6 m telescope at the European Southern Observatory. Spectral resolving power was R=20,000, with a signal-to-noise ratio S/N >

Modeling lithium rich carbon stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud: an independent distance indicator ? [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We present the first quantitative results explaining the presence in the Large Magellanic Cloud of some asymptotic giant branch stars that share the properties of lithium rich carbon stars.
