Kinematics of LMC stellar populations and self-lensing optical depth
P. Salati, R. Taillet, E. Aubourg +2
Recent observations give some clues that the lenses discovered by the microlensing experiments in the direction of the Magellanic Clouds may be located in these satellite galaxies.…

E. Aubourg, N. Palanque-Delabrouille, P. Salati +2
The observed microlensing events towards the LMC do not have yet a coherent explanation. If they are due to Galactic Halo objects, the nature of these objects is puzzling --- half…
