Massive runaway stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud [PDF]
, 2010 The origin of massive field stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) has long been an enigma. The recent measurements of large offsets (~100 km/s) between the heliocentric radial velocities of some very massive (O2-type) field stars and the systemic LMC

Radio Continuum Study of the Large Magellanic Cloud - SNR J0519-6926 [PDF]
Serbian Astronomical Journal, 2008 We present the results of new high resolution ATCA observations of SNR J0519-6926. We found that this SNR exhibits a typical "horseshoe" appearance with $alpha$=--0.55$pm$0.08 and D=28$pm1$~pc.

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 ...

Internal dynamics of the Large Magellanic Cloud from Gaia DR2 [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters, 2018 We use the proper motions (PM) of half a million red giant stars in Large Magellanic Cloud measured by Gaia to construct a 2d kinematic map of mean PM and its dispersion across the galaxy, out to 7 Kpc from its centre.

A POPULATION OF ACCRETED SMALL MAGELLANIC CLOUD STARS IN THE LARGE MAGELLANIC CLOUD [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2011 We present an analysis of the stellar kinematics of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) based on ~5900 new and existing velocities of massive red supergiants, oxygen-rich and carbon-rich asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars, and other giants. After correcting the line-of-sight velocities for the LMC's space motion and accounting for asymmetric drift in the

, 2018 Massive young stellar objects in the Magellanic Clouds show infrared absorption features corresponding to significant abundances of CO, CO$_2$ and H$_2$O ice along the line of sight, with the relative abundances of these ices differing between the ...

An ALMA View of Molecular Filaments in the Large Magellanic Cloud. II. An Early Stage of High-mass Star Formation Embedded at Colliding Clouds in N159W-South [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal, 2018 We have conducted ALMA CO isotopes and 1.3 mm continuum observations toward filamentary molecular clouds of the N159W-South region in the Large Magellanic Cloud with an angular resolution of ∼0.″25 (∼0.07 pc). Although the previous lower-resolution (∼1″)

The Large Magellanic Cloud’s ∼30 kpc Bow Shock and Its Impact on the Circumgalactic Medium
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 The interaction between the supersonic motion of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) and the circumgalactic medium (CGM) is expected to result in a bow shock that leads the LMC’s gaseous disk.

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).

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.
