X-ray Pulsars in the Small Magellanic Cloud [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2004 XMM-Newton archival data for the Small Magellanic Cloud have been examined for the presence of previously undetected X-ray pulsars. One such pulsar, with a period of 202 s, is detected.

The 3D Kinematics of Gas in the Small Magellanic Cloud [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2019 We investigate the kinematics of neutral gas in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) and test the hypothesis that it is rotating in a disk. To trace the 3D motions of the neutral gas distribution, we identify a sample of young, massive stars embedded within ...

The Magellanic Squall: Gas Replenishment from the Small to Large Magellanic Cloud [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters, 2007 We first show that a large amount of metal-poor gas is stripped from the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) and fallen into the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) during the tidal interaction between the SMC, the LMC, and the Galaxy over the last 2 Gyrs.

The Small Magellanic Cloud Investigation of Dust and Gas Evolution (SMIDGE): The Dust Extinction Curve from Red Clump Stars [PDF]
, 2017 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 × 100 pc region in the ...

The Phanerozoic climate. [PDF]
Ann N Y Acad Sci, 2023 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‐

A Distance Determination to the Small Magellanic Cloud with an Accuracy of Better than Two Percent Based on Late-type Eclipsing Binary Stars [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal, 2020 We present a new study of late-type eclipsing binary stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) undertaken with the aim of improving the distance determination to this important galaxy.

Understanding climate change impacts on biome and plant distributions in the Andes: Challenges and opportunities. [PDF]
J Biogeogr, 2022 Abstract Aim Climate change is expected to impact mountain biodiversity by shifting species ranges and the biomes they shape. The extent and regional variation in these impacts are still poorly understood, particularly in the highly biodiverse Andes. Regional syntheses of climate change impacts on vegetation are pivotal to identify and guide research ...

Improved Campephiline detection: An experiment conducted with the Magellanic Woodpecker. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2019 We designed an experiment to determine which of three methods best results in a detection of Magellanic Woodpeckers (Campephilus magellanicus). The drumming device most effectively influenced the likelihood of a woodpecker detection. Using a drumming device likely will be an effective technique to detect not only Magellanic Woodpeckers, but other ...

Runaway OB Stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud: Dynamical versus Supernova Ejections [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal, 2020 Runaway OB stars are ejected from their parent clusters via two mechanisms, both involving multiple stars: the dynamical ejection scenario (DES) and the binary supernova scenario (BSS).
