Dust in the Magellanic Clouds [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1991
The dust content of the Magellanic Clouds can be studied using optical, ultraviolet, infrared and, indirectly, radio wavelength data. All recent studies show that the dust content is lower than that of the Milky Way Galaxy for both Clouds and that the optical properties of the dust are different.

Be Stars in the Magellanic Clouds [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 2000
AbstractWe present the results of our studies of Be stars within the Magellanic Clouds. We have studied the Be population within four young populous clusters, NGC 330 in the SMC, NGC 1818, 2004 and 2100 in the LMC as well as the field population around NGC 2004.

The Relevance of Dynamical Friction for the MW/LMC/SMC Triple System

open access: yesUniverse
Simulations of structure formation in the standard cold dark matter cosmological model quantify the dark matter halos of galaxies. Taking into account dynamical friction between dark matter halos, we investigate the past orbital dynamical evolution of ...

ALMA Observations of Supernova Remnant N49 in the Large Magellanic Cloud. II. Non-LTE Analysis of Shock-heated Molecular Clouds

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present the first compelling evidence of shock-heated molecular clouds associated with the supernova remnant (SNR) N49 in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC).

Evolution and the period-luminosity relation for red supergiants in the Magellanic Clouds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Excitation of radial pulsations in red supergiants of Magellanic Clouds is investigated using the stellar evolution calculations and the self-consistent solution of the equations of radiation hydrodynamics and turbulent convection. The stars with initial

XMM-Newton and INTEGRAL Observations of the Bright GRB 230307A: Vanishing of the Local Absorption and Limits on the Dust in the Magellanic Bridge

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
GRB 230307A is the second brightest gamma-ray burst detected in more than 50 years of observations and is located in the direction of the Magellanic Bridge. Despite its long duration, it is most likely the result of the merger of a compact binary ejected

Effects of Metallicity on the Rotation Rates of Massive Stars

open access: yes, 2004
Recent theoretical predictions for low metallicity massive stars predict that these stars should have drastically reduced equatorial winds (mass loss) while on the main sequence, and as such should retain most of their angular momentum.

Radio pulsars in the Magellanic Clouds [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1991
The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) and Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) have been searched for radio pulsars using the 64-m Parkes radiotelescope. The search has resulted in the discovery of four pulsars. Observed dispersion measures to each suggest that three lie in the Clouds (two in the LMC, one in the SMC) and that the fourth, which was found in the ...

Toward a Complete Understanding of the Magellanic Stream Formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The Magellanic Clouds have lost most of their gas during their passage by the Milky Way, a property that has never been successfully modeled. Here we use accurate and mesh-free hydrodynamic simulations to reproduce the Magellanic Stream and the Magellanic Clouds in the frame of a 'ram-pressure plus collision' model.
