The Tidal Origin of the Magellanic Stream and the Possibility of a Stellar Counterpart
Jonathan D. Diaz, Kenji Bekki
We present an N-body model that reproduces the morphology and kinematics of the Magellanic Stream (MS), a vast neutral hydrogen (HI) structure that trails behind the Large and Smal…

The Effect of Drag from the Galactic Hot Halo on the Magellanic Stream and Leading Arm
Jonathan Diaz, Kenji Bekki
We study the effect of drag induced by the Galactic hot halo on the two neutral hydrogen (HI) cloud complexes associated with the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds: the Magellanic…

Constraining the orbital history of the Magellanic Clouds: A new bound scenario suggested by the tidal origin of the Magellanic Stream
Jonathan Diaz, Kenji Bekki
Bound orbits have traditionally been assigned to the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (LMC and SMC, respectively) in order to provide a formation scenario for the Magellanic Strea…
