Radiation Pressure Limits on the Star Formation Efficiency and Surface Density of Compact Stellar Systems
Roland M. Crocker, Mark R. Krumholz, Todd A. Thompson +2
The large columns of dusty gas enshrouding and fuelling star-formation in young, massive stellar clusters may render such systems optically thick to radiation well into the infrare…
Galactic cartography with SkyMapper: I. Population sub-structure and the stellar number density of the inner halo
Zhen Wan, Prajwal R. Kafle, Geraint F. Lewis +3
The stars within our Galactic halo presents a snapshot of its ongoing growth and evolution, probing galaxy formation directly. Here, we present our first analysis of the stellar ha…
Substructures and tidal distortions in the Magellanic stellar periphery
Dougal Mackey, Sergey E. Koposov, Gary Da Costa +3
We use a new panoramic imaging survey, conducted with the Dark Energy Camera, to map the stellar fringes of the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds to extremely low surface brightnes…
Snake in the Clouds: A new nearby dwarf galaxy in the Magellanic bridge
Sergey E. Koposov, Matthew G. Walker, Vasily Belokurov +9
We report the discovery of a nearby dwarf galaxy in the constellation of Hydrus, between the Large and the Small Magellanic Clouds. Hydrus 1 is a mildy elliptical ultra-faint syste…
The search for multiple populations in Magellanic Cloud Clusters IV: Coeval multiple stellar populations in the young star cluster NGC 1978
S. Martocchia, F. Niederhofer, E. Dalessandro +15
We have recently shown that the Gyr old Large Magellanic Cloud star cluster NGC 1978 hosts multiple populations in terms of star-to-star abundance variations in [N/Fe]. The…
SkyMapper Southern Survey: First Data Release (DR1)
Christian Wolf, Christopher A. Onken, Lance C. Luvaul +14
We present the first data release (DR1) of the SkyMapper Southern Survey, a hemispheric survey carried out with the SkyMapper Telescope at Siding Spring Observatory in Australia. H…
