A Galactic Eclipse: The Small Magellanic Cloud is Forming Stars in Two, Superimposed Systems
Claire E. Murray, Sten Hasselquist, Joshua E. G. Peek +22
The structure and dynamics of the star-forming disk of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) have long confounded us. The SMC is widely used as a prototype for galactic physics at low m…
LMC Stars and Where to Find Them: Inferring Birth Radii for External Galaxies
Yuxi, Lu, Tobias Buck +5
It is well known that stars move away from their birth location over time via radial migration. This dynamical process makes computing the correct chemical evolution, e.g., metalli…
Revealing the Chemical Structure of the Magellanic Clouds with APOGEE. III. Abundance Gradients of the Small Magellanic Cloud
Joshua T. Povick, David L. Nidever, Pol Massana +10
We determine radial- and age-abundance gradients of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) using spectra of 2,062 red giant branch (RGB) field stars observed by SDSS-IV / APOGEE-2S. With…
Revealing the Chemical Structure of the Magellanic Clouds with APOGEE. II. Abundance Gradients of the Large Magellanic Cloud
Joshua T. Povick, David L. Nidever, Steven R. Majewski +10
We present the abundance gradients of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) for 25 elemental abundance ratios and their respective temporal evolution as well as age-[X/Fe] trends using…
Chemical abundances of the young inner-disk open cluster NGC 6705 observed by APOGEE: sodium-rich and not -enhanced
V. Loaiza-Tacuri, K. Cunha, D. Souto +19
Previous results in the literature have found the young inner-disk open cluster NGC 6705 to be mildly -enhanced. We examined this possibility via an independent chemical abundan…
Exploring the Origin of the Distance Bimodality of Stars in the Periphery of the Small Magellanic Cloud with APOGEE and Gaia
Andres Almeida, Steven R. Majewski, David L. Nidever +12
The Magellanic Cloud system represents a unique laboratory for study of both interacting dwarf galaxies and the ongoing process of the formation of the Milky Way and its halo. We f…
