A Neutral Hydrogen Survey of the Large Magellanic Cloud: Aperture Synthesis and Multibeam Data Combined
Recent H i surveys of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (Kim et al. 1998) and the Parkes multibeam receiver (Staveley-Smith et al. 2003) have focussed, respectively, on the small-scale (< 20) structure of the interstellar medium (ISM) and the large-scale (> 1) structure of the galaxy. Using a Fourier-plane technique, we have merged both data sets provid...
متن کاملTopology of Neutral Hydrogen Within the Small Magellanic Cloud
In this paper, genus statistics have been applied to an HI column density map of the Small Magellanic Cloud in order to study its topology. At the smallest scales studied (26 pc ≤ λ ≤ 75 pc) the genus shift is negative, implying a clump topology. At medium scales (75 pc ≤ λ ≤ 125 pc) the topology shifts to a neutral/slightly positive value, indicating a tendency towards a swiss-cheese/hole topo...
متن کاملA New Look at the Kinematics of Neutral Hydrogen in the Small Magellanic Cloud
We have used the latest HI observations of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), obtained with the Australia Telescope Compact Array and the Parkes telescope, to re-examine the kinematics of this dwarf, irregular galaxy. A large velocity gradient is found in the HI velocity field with a significant symmetry in iso-velocity contours, suggestive of a differential rotation. A comparison of HI data wit...
متن کاملThe Magellanic Clouds Photometric Survey: the Large Magellanic Cloud Stellar Catalog and Extinction Map
We present our catalog of U , B, V , and I stellar photometry of the central 64 deg area of the Large Magellanic Cloud. Internal and external astrometric and photometric tests using existing optical photometry (U , B, and V from Massey’s bright star catalog and I from the near-infrared sky survey DENIS) are used to confirm our observational uncertainty estimates. We fit stellar atmosphere model...
