Fine structure in the Magellanic Stream [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1978 Dr Erkes and I, of Dudley Observatory, and Dr Ken Turner, of the Carnegie Institution of Washington, used the 300 foot radio telescope at the National Radio Astronomical Observatory, Greenbank, West Virginia in March of 1977 to measure neutral hydrogen at 21 cm in three 2° strips across positions indicated by Mathewson, Cleary, and Murray (1974 ...

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 Parkes HI Survey of the Magellanic System [PDF]
Astron.Astrophys.432:45-67,2005, 2004 We present the first fully and uniformly sampled, spatially complete HI survey of the entire Magellanic System with high velocity resolution, performed with the Parkes Telescope. The final data-cubes have an rms noise of sigma ~ 0.05 K and an effective angular resolution of 16 arcmin. The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) and the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC)

On the Distance of the Magellanic Stream [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1984 SummaryIf the HI clouds in the Magellanic Stream are in pressure equilibrium with the hot gaseous corona of our Galaxy, the distance of each cloud can be estimated from the observed properties of a cloud: position, angular dimensions, surface density of HI and the cloud temperature. Using a dynamical model with massive corona we have found distances of

Surveys of the Milky Way and Magellanic System in the λ21-cm line of atomic hydrogen
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2012 In the next three years, surveys of the Northern and Southern skies using focal plane arrays on aperture synthesis radio telescopes will lead to a breakthrough in our knowledge of the warm and cool atomic phases of the interstellar medium and their ...

THE MAGELLANIC STREAM: BREAK-UP AND ACCRETION ONTO THE HOT GALACTIC CORONA [PDF]
, 2015 The Magellanic H i Stream (≈2 × 109 M⊙ [d/55 kpc]2) encircling the Galaxy at a distance d is arguably the most important tracer of what happens to gas accreting onto a disk galaxy. Recent observations reveal that the Stream’s mass is in fact dominated (3:

RECENT STAR FORMATION IN THE LEADING ARM OF THE MAGELLANIC STREAM [PDF]
, 2014 Strongly interacting galaxies undergo a short-lived but dramatic phase of evolution characterized by enhanced star formation, tidal tails, bridges, and other morphological peculiarities.

THE COS/UVES ABSORPTION SURVEY OF THE MAGELLANIC STREAM. I. ONE-TENTH SOLAR ABUNDANCES ALONG THE BODY OF THE STREAM [PDF]
, 2013 The Magellanic Stream (MS) is a massive and extended tail of multi-phase gas stripped out of the Magellanic Clouds and interacting with the Galactic halo.

People and Nature, Volume 1, Issue 4, Page 548-561, December 2019., 2019 Abstract Sheep farms dominate the Falkland Islands landscape and have for over a century. The introduction of sheep, and several other species, has significantly transformed the ecology of this archipelago—the near elimination of tussac grass being one of the most notable changes.

The Magellanic Stream: theoretical considerations [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1979 The tidal and the primordial theories for the Magellanic Stream are examined in a frame of test-particle simulation for the interacting triple system of the Galaxy, the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (LMC and SMC). Difficulties of the radial velocity of the Stream still beset these two theories.
