The high-velocity clouds and the Magellanic Clouds [PDF]

, 2004
From an analysis of the sky and velocity distributions of the high-velocity clouds (HVCs) we show that the majority of the HVCs has a common origin. We conclude that the HVCs surround the Galaxy, forming a metacloud of 300 kpc in size and with a mass of ...

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

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

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 ...

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

, 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

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.

Spatial distribution of stellar populations in the Magellanic Clouds: Implementation to Gaia

, 2011
The main goal of our project is to investigate the spatial distribution of different stellar populations in the Magellanic Clouds. The results from modelling the Magellanic Clouds can be useful, among others, for simulations during the Gaia mission ...

Modelling dust extinction in the Magellanic Clouds [PDF]

, 2015
We model the extinction profiles observed in the Small and Large Magellanic clouds with a synthetic population of dust grains consisting by core-mantle particles and a collection of free-flying polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.

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.

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.
