    The Pressure-confined Wind of the Massive and Compact Super Star Cluster M82-A1
    The observed parameters of the young super star cluster M82-A1 and its associated compact H II region are here shown to indicate a low heating efficiency or...

    The Proper Motion Field of the Small Magellanic Cloud: Kinematic Evidence for Its Tidal Disruption
    We present a new measurement of the systemic proper motion of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), based on an expanded set of 30 fields containing background...

    The Proper-motion Field along the Magellanic Bridge: A New Probe of the LMC–SMC Interaction
    We present the first detailed kinematic analysis of the proper motions (PMs) of stars in the Magellanic Bridge, from both the Gaia Data Release 2 catalog and...
