A new look at the large-scale H I structure of the Large Magellanic Cloud

Abstract: We present a Parkes multibeam H I survey of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). This survey, which is sensitive to spatial structure in the range 200 pc to 10 kpc, complements the Australia Telescope Compact survey, which is sensitive to structure in the range 15-500 pc. With an rms column density sensitivity of 8 × 10 16 cm −2 for narrow lines and 4 × 10 17 cm −2 for typical linewidths of 40 km s −1 , emission is found to be extensive well beyond the main body of the LMC. Arm-like features extend from the LMC t… Show more

“…We calibrated the flux with a spectrum of the spectrophotometric standard star LTT3864, which was observed in conjunction with SN 1987A. For the extinction we adopted a reddening of E B−V = 0.16 (Fitzpatrick & Walborn 1990), with E B−V = 0.06 mag for the Milky Way (Staveley-Smith et al 2003), and E B−V = 0.10 mag for the LMC. The reddening law was taken from Cardelli et al (1989) using R V = 3.1.…”

“…We dereddened the spectra using the galactic extinction law assuming R V = 3.1, and E B−V = 0.16 (Fitzpatrick & Walborn 1990) for the colour excess towards SN 1987A, based on E B−V = 0.10 from the LMC and E B−V = 0.06 from the Milky Way (Staveley-Smith et al 2003). For the recession velocity we use 286.7 km s −1 (Gröningsson et al 2008a).…”
