Scylla VI: Parsec-Scale Dust Extinction Maps in the SMC and LMC
Christina W. Lindberg, Claire E. Murray, Christopher J. R. Clark +14
We present a novel methodology for mapping dust extinction in nearby galaxies at parsec-scale resolution. We apply it to HST 68 fields within the Small and Large Magellanic Clouds…
Scylla at APOGEE: The Impact of Starbursts on the Chemical Evolution of the Magellanic Clouds
Ivanna Escala, Kristen B. W. McQuinn, Sten Hasselquist +11
Owing to their proximity to the Milky Way, the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (L/SMC) uniquely probe the evolution of low-mass galaxies undergoing mutual interactions. In this w…
Scylla V: Constraints on the spatial and temporal distribution of bursts and the interaction history of the Magellanic Clouds from their resolved stellar populations
Clare Burhenne, Kristen B. W. McQuinn, Roger E. Cohen +9
We measure the star formation histories (SFHs) from the Scylla survey in approximately 98,000 pc^2 and 75,000 pc^2 of the SMC and LMC, respectively, using deep Hubble Space Telesco…
Crowning the Queen: Membership, Age, Rotation, and Activity for the Open Cluster Coma Berenices
M. A. Agüeros, J. L. Curtis, A. Núñez +8
Despite being only 85 pc away, the open cluster Coma Berenices (Coma Ber) has not been extensively studied. This is due in part to its sparseness and low proper motion, which toget…
Scylla IV: Intrinsic Stellar Properties and Line-of-Sight Dust Extinction Measurements Towards 1.5 Million Stars in the SMC and LMC
Christina W. Lindberg, Claire E. Murray, Petia Yanchulova Merica-Jones +14
By analyzing the spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of resolved stars in nearby galaxies, we can constrain their stellar properties and line-of-sight dust extinction. From the Sc…
Scylla III. The Outside-In Radial Age Gradient in the Small Magellanic Cloud and the Star Formation Histories of the Main Body, Wing and Outer Regions
Roger E. Cohen, Kristen B. W. McQuinn, Claire E. Murray +13
The proximity of the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (LMC and SMC) provides the opportunity to study the impact of dwarf-dwarf interactions on their mass assembly with a unique l…
