The Spatial Distribution of Dust and Stellar Emission of the Magellanic Clouds
Ramin A. Skibba, Charles W. Engelbracht, Gonzalo Aniano +24
We study the emission by dust and stars in the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds, a pair of low-metallicity nearby galaxies, as traced by their spatially resolved spectral energy d…
The Magellanic Mopra Assessment (MAGMA). I. The Molecular Cloud Population of the Large Magellanic Cloud
Tony Wong, Annie Hughes, Jürgen Ott +15
We present the properties of an extensive sample of molecular clouds in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) mapped at 11 pc resolution in the CO(1-0) line. We identify clouds as regio…
Spatial variations of dust abundances across the Large Magellanic Cloud
Deborah Paradis, William T. Reach, Jean-Philippe Bernard +11
Using the data obtained with the Spitzer Space telescope as part of the Surveying the Agents of a Galaxy's Evolution (SAGE) legacy survey, we have studied the variations of the dus…
Herschel and SCUBA-2 observations of dust emission in a sample of Planck cold clumps
Mika Juvela, Jinhua He, Katherine Pattle +26
Analysis of all-sky Planck submillimetre observations and the IRAS 100um data has led to the detection of a population of Galactic cold clumps. The clumps can be used to study star…
Dust and Gas in the Magellanic Clouds from the HERITAGE Herschel Key Project. I. Dust Properties and Insights into the Origin of the Submm Excess Emission
Karl D. Gordon, Julia Roman-Duval, Caroline Bot +33
The dust properties in the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds are studied using the HERITAGE Herschel Key Project photometric data in five bands from 100 to 500 micron. Three simple…
Spitzer Characterization of Dust in the Ionized Medium of the Large Magellanic Cloud
Deborah Paradis, Roberta Paladini, Alberto Noriega-Crespo +4
A systematic investigation of dust emission associated with the ionized gas has so far been performed only in our Galaxy and for wavelengths longer than 60 μm. Newly available Spi…
ALMA Observations of a Quiescent Molecular Cloud in the Large Magellanic Cloud
Tony Wong, Annie Hughes, Kazuki Tokuda +19
We present high-resolution (sub-parsec) observations of a giant molecular cloud in the nearest star-forming galaxy, the Large Magellanic Cloud. ALMA Band 6 observations trace the b…
Surveying the Agents of Galaxy Evolution in the Tidally-Stripped, Low Metallicity Small Magellanic Cloud (SAGE-SMC). I. Overview
Karl D. Gordon, Margaret Meixner, Marilyn Meade +57
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). This m…
Dust/gas correlations from Herschel Observations
Julia Roman-Duval, Frank P. Israel, Alberto Bolatto +21
Spitzer and IRAS observations of the LMC suggest an excess of FIR emission with respect to the gas surface density traced by 12CO and HI 21 cm emission lines. This "FIR excess" is…
