The VMC Survey -- XL. Three-dimensional structure of the Small Magellanic Cloud as derived from red clump stars
B. L. Tatton, J. Th. van Loon, M. -R. L. Cioni +12
Galaxy interactions distort the distribution of baryonic matter and can affect star formation. The nearby Magellanic Clouds are a prime example of an ongoing galaxy interaction pro…
Gaia view of a stellar sub-structure in front of the Small Magellanic Cloud
Abinaya O. Omkumar, Smitha Subramanian, Florian Niederhofer +6
Recent observational studies identified a foreground stellar sub-structure traced by red clump (RC) stars (~ 12 kpc in front of the main body) in the eastern regions of the Small M…
The intrinsic reddening of the Magellanic Clouds as traced by background galaxies -- II. The Small Magellanic Cloud
Cameron P. M. Bell, Maria-Rosa L. Cioni, A. H. Wright +23
We present a map of the total intrinsic reddening across ~34 deg of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) derived using optical () and near-infrared (IR; …
The VMC survey -- XXXIX: Mapping metallicity trends in the Small Magellanic Cloud using near-infrared passbands
Samyaday Choudhury, Richard de Grijs, Stefano Rubele +7
We have derived high spatial resolution metallicity maps covering 42 deg across the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) in an attempt to understand its metallicity distribution…
The Gaia-ESO survey: the non-universality of the age-chemical-clocks-metallicity relations in the Galactic disc
G. Casali, L. Spina, L. Magrini +36
In the era of large spectroscopic surveys, massive databases of high-quality spectra provide tools to outline a new picture of our Galaxy. In this framework, an important piece of…
The VMC survey -- XXXVIII. Proper motion of the Magellanic Bridge
Thomas Schmidt, Maria-Rosa L. Cioni, Florian Niederhofer +14
The Magellanic Clouds are a nearby pair of interacting dwarf galaxies and satellites of the Milky Way. Studying their kinematic properties is essential to understanding their origi…
