Mapping the Periphery and Variability of the Magellanic Clouds

Knut Olsen, Paula Szkody, Maria-Rosa Cioni +10

We propose a combination of a modified Wide-Fast-Deep survey, a mini-survey of the South Celestial Pole, and a Deep Drilling-style survey to produce a 3-D map of the Magellanic Sys…

The Star Formation History in the M31 Bulge

Hui Dong, Knut Olsen, Tod Lauer +4

We present the study of stellar populations in the central 5.5' (~1.2 kpc) of the M31 bulge by using the optical color magnitude diagram derived from HST ACS WFC/HRC observations.…

Exploring the Very Extended Low Surface Brightness Stellar Populations of the Large Magellanic Cloud with SMASH

David L. Nidever, Knut Olsen, Yumi Choi +23

We present the detection of very extended stellar populations around the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) out to R~21 degrees, or ~18.5 kpc at the LMC distance of 50 kpc, as detected i…

SMASHing THE LMC: Mapping a Ring-like Stellar Overdensity in the LMC Disk

Yumi Choi, David L. Nidever, Knut Olsen +18

We explore the stellar structure of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) disk using data from the Survey of the MAgellanic Stellar History (SMASH) and the Dark Energy Survey. We detect…
