Dust distributions in the magellanic clouds [PDF]

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2022
ABSTRACT We present high-resolution maps of the dust reddening in the Magellanic Clouds (MCs). The maps cover the Large and Small Magellanic Cloud (LMC and SMC) area and have a spatial angular resolution between ∼26 arcsec and 55 arcmin.

N-body simulations of the Magellanic Stream

, 2005
A suite of high-resolution N-body simulations of the Magellanic Clouds -- Milky Way system are presented and compared directly with newly available data from the HI Parkes All-Sky Survey (HIPASS).

The disruption of nearby galaxies by the Milky Way [PDF]

, 1998
Interactions between galaxies are common and are an important factor in determining their physical properties such as position along the Hubble sequence and star-formation rate.

High Velocity Clouds Near the Magellanic Clouds [PDF]

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1991
High velocity clouds (HVCs) of neutral atomic hydrogen close to the position of the Magellanic Clouds (MCs) and the Magellanic Stream (Stream) are reviewed. The gas observed at velocities of +70 km/s and +130 km/s in front of the LMC is probably associated with ordinary HVCs in the galactic halo.

The scattered debris of the Magellanic Stream

, 2008
Searching the HI Parkes All-Sky Survey (HIPASS) and its northern extension, we detected a population of very compact high-velocity clouds (HVCs) with similar velocities in the Galactic standard-of-rest frame which appear to be arranged in several ...

POPULATION OF BLACK HOLES IN THE MILKY WAY AND IN THE MAGELLANIC CLOUDS

Acta Polytechnica, 2013
In this review, I will briefly discuss the different types of black hole (BH) populations (supermassive, intermediate mass and stellar mass BHs) both in the Galaxy and in the Magellanic Clouds and compare them with each other.

Astrophysical Distance Scale. VII. A Self-consistent, Multiwavelength Calibration of the Slopes and Relative Zero Points for the Run of Luminosity with the Color of Stars Defining the Tip of the Red Giant Branch

The Astronomical Journal, 2023
Given the recent successful launch of the James Webb Space Telescope, determining robust calibrations of the slopes and absolute magnitudes of the near- to mid-infrared tip of the red-giant branch (TRGB) will be essential to measuring precise ...

Cepheids in the Magellanic Clouds [PDF]

, 1995
In the past few years, the Magellanic Clouds have been the targets for several major variable star surveys. The results of these surveys are now becoming available and it is clear that a Renaissance in LMC and SMC variable star research will result.

The Metallicities of Five Small High-velocity Clouds

The Astrophysical Journal
High-velocity clouds (HVCs) are multiphase gas structures whose velocities (∣ v _LSR ∣ ≥ 100 km s ^−1 ) are too high to be explained by Galactic disk rotation.
