Chemical evolution of the Large Magellanic Cloud

Kenji Bekki, Takuji Tsujimoto

We adopt a new chemical evolution model for the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) and thereby investigate its past star formation and chemical enrichment histories. The delay time distr…

Feedback effects of aspherical supernovae explosions on galaxies

Kenji Bekki, Toshikazu Shigeyama, Takuji Tsujimoto

We investigate how explosions of aspherical supernovae (A-SNe) can influence star formation histories and chemical evolution of dwarf galaxies by using a new chemodynamical model.…

Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA): In Search of Milky-Way Magellanic Cloud Analogues

A. S. G. Robotham, I. K. Baldry, J. Bland-Hawthorn +13

Analysing all Galaxy and Mass Assembly (GAMA) galaxies within a factor two (+/- 0.3 dex) of the stellar mass of the Milky Way (MW), there is a 11.9% chance that one of these galaxi…

The Fornax dwarf galaxy as a remnant of recent dwarf-dwarf merging in the Local Group

C. Yozin, K. Bekki

We present results from the first numerical analysis to support the hypothesis, first proposed in Coleman et al. (2004), that the Fornax dwarf galaxy was formed from the minor merg…

GASKAP -- The Galactic ASKAP Survey

J. M. Dickey, N. McClure-Griffiths, S. J. Gibson +55

A survey of the Milky Way disk and the Magellanic System at the wavelengths of the 21-cm atomic hydrogen (HI) line and three 18-cm lines of the OH molecule will be carried out with…

First Evidence of Globular Cluster Formation from the Ejecta of Prompt Type Ia Supernovae

Takuji Tsujimoto, Kenji Bekki

Recent spectroscopic observations of globular clusters (GCs) in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) have discovered that one of the intermediate-age GC, NGC 1718 with [Fe/H]=-0.7 has…
