The Missing Black Hole in the Large Magellanic Cloud: A Dynamical Prediction for Its Present-Day Location

Robin Chisholm, Elena D'Onghia, Niv Drory +2

There are indications that the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) hosts a central supermassive black hole (SMBH), yet no direct detection exists: one reason is that its present-day locat…

There is no single density: star-forming regions and galaxies hold more dense ionized gas than long assumed

J. Eduardo Méndez-Delgado, Christophe Morisset, William J. Henney +29

Ionized gas fills star-forming regions and galaxies, and nearly everything we know about its temperature, pressure, mass, and composition is inferred from its emission lines [1-3].…

SDSS-V LVM: Verifying what, and where, the 'Galactic Center' Lobe is

K. Kreckel, O. V. Egorov, N. Drory +23

The so-called 'Galactic Center' Lobe (GCL) is an extended (~1 deg) radio continuum feature situated above the Galactic Plane, for which the literature contains varying claims about…
