The 3D Kinematics of Gas in the Small Magellanic Cloud [PDF]
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 ...

On the dynamics of the Small Magellanic Cloud through high-resolution ASKAP H iobservations [PDF]
Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2018 We use new high-resolution H i data from the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder to investigate the dynamics of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC).

Nature of a shell of young stars in the outskirts of the Small Magellanic Cloud [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2019 Context. Understanding the evolutionary history of the Magellanic Clouds requires an in-depth exploration and characterization of the stellar content in their outer regions, which ultimately are key to tracing the epochs and nature of past interactions ...

Dust and Gas in the Small Magellanic Cloud [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1999 Here we present four IRAS high resolution images of the Small Magellanic Cloud, as reconstructed by the HIRAS program using the Pyramid Maximum Entropy method (Bontekoe et al. 1994). (HIRAS is not to be confused with HiRes (Aumann et al. 1990).) The images show much more detail than in Schwering & Israel (1990). Dust temperatures range from 25–41 K

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We have used the “dynamical clock” to measure the level of dynamical evolution reached by three Galactic globular clusters (namely, NGC 3201, NGC 6316, and NGC 6440).

A POPULATION OF ACCRETED SMALL MAGELLANIC CLOUD STARS IN THE LARGE MAGELLANIC CLOUD [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2011 We present an analysis of the stellar kinematics of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) based on ~5900 new and existing velocities of massive red supergiants, oxygen-rich and carbon-rich asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars, and other giants. After correcting the line-of-sight velocities for the LMC's space motion and accounting for asymmetric drift in the

The VMC survey - XXVI. Structure of the Small Magellanic Cloud from RR Lyrae stars [PDF]
, 2017 We present results from the analysis of 2997 fundamental mode RR Lyrae variables located in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). For these objects near-infrared time-series photometry from the VISTA survey of the Magellanic Clouds system (VMC) and visual ...

Molecular gas in the Small Magellanic Cloud [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1991 We summarize the results of observations of molecular gas from the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) made with low angular resolution (8'.8). These observations show that the CO emission is weak (TA˜ 0.04K) and that the CO luminosities of the Clouds are low compared to those of Galactic molecular clouds.

The structure of Small Magellanic Cloud star clusters [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2021 The variations in the structural parameters and the internal dynamical evolution of star clusters in the Milky Way and the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) caused by the different gravitational field strengths that they experience has been revealed thanks to recent observational data sets.

Low-excitation blobs in the Magellanic Clouds [PDF]
, 2006 Aims : We study an unknown, or very poorly known, interstellar HII component in the Magellanic Clouds. This is the first study ever devoted to this class of objects, which we call Low-excitation blobs (LEBs).
