Invisible Accretion: Ionized Envelopes of TNG50 HVCs can Sustain Star Formation
Scott Lucchini, Jiwon Jesse Han, Lars Hernquist +2
Galactic high-velocity clouds (HVCs) are known to be complex, multiphase systems consisting of neutral and/or ionized gas moving at high velocities relative to the rotation of the…
Secular Attrition of Classical Bulges by Stellar Bars
Rachel Lee McClure, Tobias Géron, Elena D'Onghia +5
Classical bulges and stellar bars are common features in disk galaxies and serve as key tracers of galactic evolution. Angular momentum exchange at bar resonances drives secular mo…
The Distance to the Magellanic Stream: Constraints from Optical Absorption along Stellar Sightlines
Sapna Mishra, Andrew J. Fox, J. V. Smoker +2
The Magellanic Stream (MS) is a large tail of neutral and ionized gas originating from tidal and hydrodynamical interactions between the Magellanic Clouds as they orbit the Milky W…
Following the tidal trail: a history of modeling the Magellanic Stream
Scott Lucchini
The formation of the Magellanic Stream has puzzled astronomers for decades. In this review, we outline the history of our understanding of the Magellanic System highlighting key ob…
First evidence of a stripped star cluster from the Small Magellanic Cloud
Andrés E. Piatti, Scott Lucchini
We present results on the recently discovered stellar system YMCA-1, for which physical nature and belonging to any of the Magellanic System galaxies have been irresolutely analyze…
