Long photometric cycles in hot algols [PDF]

Serbian Astronomical Journal, 2017
We summarize the development of the field of Double Periodic Variables (DPVs, Mennickent et al. 2003) during the last fourteen years, placing these objects in the context of intermediate-mass close interacting binaries similar to β Persei (Algol)

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 ...

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 [PDF]

, 2017
We have performed a detailed HI study of the Magellanic Stream (MS). Using the LAB all-sky HI survey, we expose the MS to be composed of two filaments distinct both spatially (as first pointed out by Putman et al. 2003) and in velocity. One of the MS filaments and parts of the Leading Arm (LA) can be traced back to their origin in the SouthEast HI ...

THE 200° LONG MAGELLANIC STREAM SYSTEM [PDF]

The Astrophysical Journal, 2010
We establish with certainty that the Magellanic Stream (MS) is some 40{sup 0} longer than previously known and that the entire MS and Leading Arm system is thus at least 200{sup 0} long. With the Green Bank Telescope (GBT), we conducted a {approx}200 deg{sup 2}, 21 cm survey at the tip of the MS to substantiate the continuity of the MS between the ...

GASS High Velocity Clouds in the Region of the Magellanic Leading Arm [PDF]

, 2012
We present a catalog of high-velocity clouds in the region of the Magellanic Leading Arm. The catalog is based on neutral hydrogen (\HI) observations from the Parkes Galactic All-Sky Survey (GASS).

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.

Galactic Cannibalism: The Origin of the Magellanic Stream [PDF]

Astrophysics and Space Science, 2002
We are in a privileged location in the Universe which allows us to observe galactic interactions from close range---the merger of our two nearest dwarf satellite galaxies, the LMC and SMC. It is important to understand the local merger process before we can have confidence in understanding mergers at high redshift.

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.

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 ...
