The Dependence of Iron-rich Metal-poor Star Occurrence on Galactic Environment Supports an Origin in Thermonuclear Supernova Nucleosynthesis

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
It has been suggested that a class of chemically peculiar metal-poor stars called iron-rich metal-poor (IRMP) stars formed from molecular cores with metal contents dominated by thermonuclear supernova nucleosynthesis.

EMBEDDED CLUSTERS IN THE LARGE MAGELLANIC CLOUD USING THE VISTA MAGELLANIC CLOUDS SURVEY* [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2016
ABSTRACT We present initial results of the first large-scale survey of embedded star clusters in molecular clouds in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) using near-infrared imaging from the Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy Magellanic Clouds Survey.

Sub-millimeter to centimeter excess emission from the Magellanic Clouds. I. Global spectral energy distribution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In order to reconstruct the global SEDs of the Magellanic Clouds over eight decades in spectral range, we combined literature flux densities representing the entire LMC and SMC respectively, and complemented these with maps extracted from the WMAP and ...

Discovery of 14 radio pulsars in a survey of the Magellanic Clouds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
A systematic survey of the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds for radio pulsars using the Parkes radio telescope and the 20-cm multibeam receiver has resulted in the discovery of 14 pulsars and the redetection of five of the eight previously known spin ...

New Insights on 30 Dor B Revealed by High-quality Multiwavelength Observations

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
The supernova remnant (SNR) 30 Dor B is associated with the H ii region ionized by the OB association LH99. The complex interstellar environment has made it difficult to study the physical structure of this SNR.

Stellar dust production and composition in the Magellanic Clouds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The dust reservoir in the interstellar medium of a galaxy is constantly being replenished by dust formed in the stellar winds of evolved stars. Due to their vicinity, nearby irregular dwarf galaxies the Magellanic Clouds provide an opportunity to obtain ...

The connection between the host halo and the satellite galaxies of the Milky Way [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Many properties of the Milky Way's dark matter halo, including its mass assembly history, concentration, and subhalo population, remain poorly constrained.

Pulsating stars in the VMC survey

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
The VISTA survey of the Magellanic Clouds system (VMC) began observations in 2009 and since then, it has collected multi-epoch data at Ks and in addition multi-band data in Y and J for a wide range of stellar populations across the Magellanic system ...

New quasars behind the Magellanic Clouds. Spectroscopic confirmation of near-infrared selected candidates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Context. Quasi-stellar objects (quasars) located behind nearby galaxies provide an excellent absolute reference system for astrometric studies, but they are difficult to identify because of fore- and background contamination.
