The Second Data Release of the Survey of the MAgellanic Stellar History (SMASH)

David L. Nidever, Knut Olsen, Yumi Choi +32

The Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (LMC and SMC) are the largest satellite galaxies of the Milky Way and close enough to allow for a detailed exploration of their structure and…

SMASHing the low surface brightness SMC

Pol Massana, Noelia E. D. Noël, David L. Nidever +22

The periphery of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) can unlock important information regarding galaxy formation and evolution in interacting systems. Here, we present a detailed stud…

On the nature of a shell of young stars in the outskirts of the Small Magellanic Cloud

David Martinez-Delgado, A. Katherina Vivas, Eva K. Grebel +35

Understanding the evolutionary history of the Magellanic Clouds requires an in-depth exploration and characterization of the stellar content in their outer regions, which ultimatel…

On the Nature of Ultra-faint Dwarf Galaxy Candidates. III. Horologium I, Pictor I, Grus I, and Phoenix II

Helmut Jerjen, Blair Conn, Dongwon Kim +1

We use deep Gemini/GMOS-S photometry to study the stellar populations of the recently discovered Milky Way satellite candidates Horologium I, Pictor I, Grus I, and Phoenix II…

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: A Tidally-induced Warp in the Outer LMC and a Large-scale Reddening Map

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

We present a study of the three-dimensional (3D) structure of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) using ~2.2 million red clump (RC) stars selected from the Survey of the MAgellanic St…
