Discovery of a loose star cluster in the Large Magellanic Cloud [PDF]

, 2016
We present results for an up-to-date uncatalogued star cluster projected towards the Eastern side of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) outer disc. The new object was discovered from a search of loose star cluster in the Magellanic Clouds' (MCs) outskirts ...

New 20-cm radio-continuum study of the small Magellanic cloud: Part I. Images [PDF]

Serbian Astronomical Journal, 2011
We present and discuss new high-sensitivity and resolution radiocontinuum images of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) at λ=20 cm (ν=1.4 GHz). The new images were created by merging 20-cm radio-continuum archival data, from the Australian ...

A High-resolution Imaging Survey of Massive Young Stellar Objects in the Magellanic Clouds

The Astrophysical Journal
Constraints on the binary fraction of massive young stellar objects (mYSOs) are important for binary and massive star formation theory. Here, we present speckle imaging of 34 mYSOs located in the Large Magellanic Cloud (1/2 Z _⊙ ) and Small Magellanic ...

On the Age Distribution of Classical Cepheids in the Galaxy

Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 346, Issue 5, June 2025.
ABSTRACT We revisit the problem of the positive correlation between age and Galactocentric distance seen in Galactic Classical Cepheids, which at first sight may seem counter‐intuitive in the context of inside‐out galaxy formation. To explain it, we use the Besançon Galaxy Model and a simulation of star particles in the Galactic disc coupled with ...

Lactea: Web‐Based Spectrum‐Preserving Multi‐Resolution Visualization of the GAIA Star Catalog

Computer Graphics Forum, Volume 44, Issue 3, June 2025.
Abstract The explosion of data in astronomy has resulted in an era of unprecedented opportunities for discovery. The GAIA mission's catalog, containing a large number of light sources (mostly stars) with several parameters such as sky position and proper motion, is playing a significant role in advancing astronomy research and has been crucial in ...

The Detection of Hot Molecular Cores in the Small Magellanic Cloud

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
We report the first detection of hot molecular cores in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), a nearby dwarf galaxy with 0.2 solar metallicity. We observed two high-mass young stellar objects in the SMC with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array ...

HI power spectrum of the spiral galaxy NGC628 [PDF]

, 2007
We have measured the HI power spectrum of the nearly face-on spiral galaxy NGC628 (M74) using a visibility based estimator. The power spectrum is well fitted by a power law $P(U)=AU^{\alpha}$, with $\alpha =- 1.6\pm0.2$ over the length scale $800 {\rm pc}

XMM‐Newton Observations of the Peculiar Be X‐Ray Binary A0538‐66

Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 346, Issue 1, January 2025.
ABSTRACT A0538‐66 is a neutron star/Be x‐ray binary located in the Large Magellanic Cloud and, since its discovery in the 70s, it showed a peculiar behavior that makes it a unique object in the high‐mass x‐ray binaries scene: the extremely eccentric orbit (e=0.72$$ e=0.72 $$), the short spin period of the neutron star (P=69$$ P=69 $$ ms), the episodes ...

Beyond Accretion Limits: The Rise of Pulsating Gems

Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 346, Issue 1, January 2025.
ABSTRACT The discovery of several ultraluminous X‐ray sources exhibiting fast and rapidly evolving X‐ray pulsations unequivocally associates these sources with accreting neutron stars orbiting relatively massive companion stars (> 8M ⊙$$ {}_{\odot } $$).
