Magellanic Cloud Stars

Nature, 1967
The Magellanic Clouds, visible in the Southern Hemisphere, are the nearest external galaxies. Their brightest stars can be distinguished unambiguously with the spectroscope. A spectral survey of the 194 brightest known stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud has provided new information on the evolution of massive stars. Such short-lived supergiants should

The Magellanic Clouds

1924
With the recent determination at the Harvard Observatory of standardized sequences of apparent magnitudes in the Small Magellanic Cloud, we have reached a new phase in the study of stellar organization. Having found, as one product of the photometric work, the distance of this star cloud, we are now in a position to determine for several types of stars

Bypassing the Magellanic Cloud

Science, 1999
ASTRONOMYAs the tug-of-war continues over the distance to a nearby galaxy called the Large Magellanic Cloud--a first step in the cosmic distance ladder ([see main text][1])--a few astronomers have boldly tried to leapfrog it. They are using clever geometric techniques to get absolute distances to more remote galaxies.

The Clouds of Magellan

Scientific American, 1985
In recent years astronomers have found a number of surprises in the structure of the Magellanic clouds themselves. Tides raised by their interaction with each other and with the Milky Way have distorted their form, and there is now a long tendril of gas and stars extending between the LMC and the SMC.

The Large Magellanic Cloud

2002
Abstract In 1519 the Portuguese sea captain Fernão de Magalhães, whom we call Ferdinand Magellan, commanding a fleet of five small ships, sailed under the flag of Spain to circumnavigate the globe. His purpose was to expand the Spanish empire. A papal bull of 1493 had divided the New World according to a line of longitude running through
