Relations between Molecular Cloud Structure Sizes and Line Widths in the Large Magellanic Cloud [PDF]
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]
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 ...

KSP: Large Magellanic Cloud Survey
The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) is a unique galaxy hosting extraordinary objects, including the star-forming region 30 Doradus (the most active starforming region in the local group of galaxies), the super star cluster R136 (an exceptional cluster with a large concentration of very massive O and Wolf-Rayet stars), supernova SN1987A (the closest ...

HEAD IN THE STARS, FEET ON THE GROUND: Scale and Astronomy Initiatives in Southern Africa
ABSTRACT This article explores the evolution of radio astronomy in South Africa and Madagascar, focusing on how “scale” functions as both a way of understanding the world and marking differences in existence. In outer space research, the ground is crucial but often overlooked.

A High-resolution Imaging Survey of Massive Young Stellar Objects in the Magellanic Clouds
Constraints on the binary fraction of massive young stellar objects (mYSOs) are important for binary and massive star formation theory. Here, we present speckle imaging of 34 mYSOs located in the Large Magellanic Cloud (1/2 Z _⊙ ) and Small Magellanic ...

The Diffuse Ionized Gas Halo of the Large Magellanic Cloud
The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) has an extensive H α emission halo that traces an extended, warm ionized component of its interstellar medium. Using the Wisconsin H α Mapper telescope, we present the first kinematic H α survey of an extensive region ...

We have used recent observational data for the Cepheids in the rich, young LMC clusters NGC 1866 and NGC 2031 to constrain the cluster distances with the mass-equivalency (ME) method. The basis of this approach is to fix the cluster distances by requiring the Cepheid evolutionary and pulsational masses to be equal.

On the Age Distribution of Classical Cepheids in the Galaxy
ABSTRACT We revisit the problem of the positive correlation between age and Galactocentric distance seen in Galactic Classical Cepheids, which at first sight may seem counter‐intuitive in the context of inside‐out galaxy formation. To explain it, we use the Besançon Galaxy Model and a simulation of star particles in the Galactic disc coupled with ...
