The Large and Small Magellanic Clouds are unique local laboratories for studying the formation and evolution of small galaxies in exquisite detail. The Survey...
SMASHing the LMC: A Tidally Induced Warp in the Outer LMC and a Large-scale Reddening Map
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...
SMASHing the LMC: Mapping a Ring-like Stellar Overdensity in the LMC Disk
We explore the stellar structure of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) disk using data from the Survey of the MAgellanic Stellar History and the Dark Energy...
The periphery of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) can unlock important information regarding galaxy formation and evolution in interacting systems. Here, we...
sMILES SSPs: a library of semi-empirical MILES stellar population models with variable [α/Fe] abundances
We present a new library of semi-empirical stellar population models that are based on the empirical MILES and semi-empirical sMILES stellar libraries. The...
sMILES: a library of semi-empirical MILES stellar spectra with variable [α/Fe] abundances
We present a new library of semi-empirical stellar spectra that is based on the empirical Medium resolution Isaac Newton Library of Empirical Spectra (MILES)...
Smooth kinematic and metallicity gradients reveal that the Milky Way's nuclear star cluster and disc might be part of the same structure
Context. The innermost regions of most galaxies are characterised by the presence of extremely dense nuclear star clusters. Nevertheless, these clusters are not...
SN 1988A in M58 - A type II-P supernova with a high late-time luminosity
SN 1988A is (with exception of the well-observed SN 1987A) the only type II SN for which observations of the late tail of the light curve are presently...
SN 1988A in M58 - Departure from Co-56 decay 700 days after explosion
Observations of SN 1988A in M58 are presented which show a remarkable departure from Co-56 decay in the optical light curve starting about 700 days since...
