A Preinfall Magellanic Analog–Corona and Stream Formation in the HESTIA Cosmological Simulations
The Astrophysical JournalWe identify and investigate a preinfall analog of the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (LMCs, SMCs) in the High-Resolution Environmental Simulations of the Immediate Area suite of constrained cosmological simulations.

THE MAGELLANIC STREAM SYSTEM. I. RAM-PRESSURE TAILS AND THE RELICS OF THE COLLISION BETWEEN THE MAGELLANIC CLOUDS [PDF]
, 2015 We have analyzed the Magellanic Stream (MS) using the deepest and the most resolved H i survey of the Southern Hemisphere (the Galactic All-Sky Survey). The overall Stream is structured into two filaments, suggesting two ram-pressure tails lagging behind

The origin of the microlensing events observed towards the LMC and the stellar counterpart of the Magellanic stream [PDF]
, 2012 We introduce a novel theoretical model to explain the long-standing puzzle of the nature of the microlensing events reported towards the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) by the MACHO and OGLE collaborations.

Estimate of Current Mass of the Large Magellanic Cloud from the Orphan–Chenab Tidal Stream
The Astrophysical JournalBy fitting the tilt in the path of the Orphan–Chenab Stream (OCS), we conclude that the current mass of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) within 30 kpc is (4.7–5.1) × 10 ^10 M _⊙ .

The Magellanic Stream at 20 kpc: A New Orbital History for the Magellanic Clouds [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2021 We present new simulations of the formation of the Magellanic Stream based on an updated first-passage interaction history for the Magellanic Clouds, including both the Galactic and Magellanic Coronae and a live dark matter halo for the Milky Way.

The Small-Scale Structure of the Magellanic Stream as a Foundation for Galaxy Evolution [PDF]
Serbian Astronomical Journal, 2010 The Magellanic Stream (MS) is the nearest example of agaseous trail formed by interacting galaxies. While the substantial gas masses in these kinds of circumgalactic structures are postulated to represent important sources of fuel for future star ...

The Magellanic Stream and the Magellanic Cloud System [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1999 A tidal model has been introduced to the triple system of the Galaxy, Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (the LMC and SMC hereafter) and successfully reproduced the Magellanic Stream (Murai and Fujimoto 1980; Lin and Lynden-Bell 1982; Gardiner et al. 1994; Gardiner and Noguchi 1995; Lin et al. 1995), a narrow band of diffuse atomic hydrogen gas emerging

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 3, March 2023., 2023 Traditionally abiotic factors are considered the main drivers of biodiversity at macro‐scales, whereas biotic factors are considered important almost only at local scales. Modeling the distribution of 177 African bat species, we demonstrated the importance of considering biotic interactions in SDMs at macro‐scales regardless of the species’ ecology ...

The Many Streams of the Magellanic Stream [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2008 AbstractAs a part of the ongoing H i survey by the consortium for Galactic studies with the Arecibo L-band Feed Array (GALFA-HI), we have recently imaged the tip of the MS and found several long filamentary structures. This demonstrates that the northern portion of the MS, which has been interacting with the Galactic halo for a long time, is more ...

The Evolution of Magellanic-like Galaxy Pairs and the Production of Magellanic Stream Analogs in Simulations with Tides, Ram Pressure, and Stellar Feedback [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal, 2020 We present a series of chemodynamical simulations of Magellanic-like systems consisting of two interacting, equal-mass dwarf galaxies orbiting a massive host galaxy, including feedback and star formation, tides, and ram pressure.
