N-body Simulations of the Small Magellanic Cloud and the Magellanic Stream [PDF]
An extensive set of N-body simulations has been carried out on the gravitational interaction of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) with the Galaxy and the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC).

Surveying the Agents of Galaxy Evolution in the Tidally Stripped, Low Metallicity Small Magellanic Cloud (SAGE-SMC). I. Overview [PDF]
The Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) provides a unique laboratory for the study of the lifecycle of dust given its low metallicity (~1/5 solar) and relative proximity (~60 kpc).

Molecular Gas in the Outflow of the Small Magellanic Cloud [PDF]
We report the first evidence of molecular gas in two atomic hydrogen (H i) clouds associated with gas outflowing from the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). We used the Atacama Pathfinder Experiment to detect and spatially resolve individual clumps of 12CO(2 →

Oxygen Isotopes Reveal Low-mass Star Dominance in the Small Magellanic Cloud [PDF]
Oxygen isotope abundances and their ratios are fingerprints of stellar evolution, and therefore provide a powerful tool in tracing the enrichment history of galaxies.

Magnetic Field Structure in the Small Magellanic Cloud [PDF]
The present status of an ongoing observational program to study the magnetic field structure of the SMC by means of optical polarimetry is presented. Being the SMC more distant than the LMC, the observed optical polarization would mainly originate in the distorted outer layers in the front side of the SMC.

The VMC survey – XXXI: The spatially resolved star formation history of the main body of the Small Magellanic Cloud [PDF]
We recover the spatially resolved star formation history across the entire main body and Wing of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), using fourteen deep tile images from the VISTA survey of the Magellanic Clouds (VMC), in the YJKs filters.

The Small Magellanic Cloud Investigation of Dust and Gas Evolution (SMIDGE): The Dust Extinction Curve from Red Clump Stars [PDF]
We use Hubble Space Telescope (HST) observations of red clump stars taken as part of the Small Magellanic Cloud Investigation of Dust and Gas Evolution (SMIDGE) program to measure the average dust extinction curve in a ~ 200 pc x 100 pc region in the ...

The Phanerozoic climate. [PDF]
We review the long‐term climate variations during the last 540 million years (Phanerozoic Eon). We first summarize the geological and geochemical datasets available for reconstruction of long‐term climate variations. We then explore the main drivers of climate that appear to explain a large fraction of these climatic oscillations. The first is the long‐

GASKAP-HI pilot survey science I: ASKAP zoom observations of Hi emission in the Small Magellanic Cloud [PDF]
We present the most sensitive and detailed view of the neutral hydrogen ( ${\rm H\small I}$ ) emission associated with the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), through the combination of data from the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP) and ...
