NGC1818 unveils the origin of the extended main-sequence turn-off in young Magellanic Clouds clusters [PDF]

Nature Communications, 2022
The nature of young star clusters in the Magellanic Clouds is debated. Here, the authors show an alternative approach that exploits data to exclude the presence of age differences greater than a few million years among cluster stars in a very young ...

Discovery of the Magellanic Stellar Stream Out to 100 kpc

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The Magellanic Stream (MS)—an enormous ribbon of gas spanning 140° of the southern sky trailing the Magellanic Clouds—has been exquisitely mapped in the five decades since its discovery.

Magellanic Clouds Cepheids: Thorium Abundances [PDF]

Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2018
The analysis of the high-resolution spectra of 31 Magellanic Clouds Cepheid variables enabled the identification of thorium lines. The abundances of thorium were found with spectrum synthesis method. The calculated thorium abundances exhibit correlations
