Among the currently interesting problems of interpreting the Magellanic Stream as an instance of tidal disruption is that of finding some demonstrable phenomenon in the makeup of the involved material that parallels the better known cases of tidal interaction, as for example NGC4038/39, where the dynamic and star-formation time scales are in agreement (Schweizer 1977). The observational problems that beset the interpretation of the Magellanic Stream are numerous (Mathewson and Schwartz 1976, Kunkel 1979, Bregman 1979), and the marked difference between the composition of the Stream (evidenced purely through HI) and the stellar systems (at least 80 percent stars) is among the outstanding dilemmas remaining. Finding some counterpart in the Magellanic scene comparable to the better recognized instances of tidal interaction may go some way towards clarifying a perplexing situation.

We investigate the nature of stellar populations of major galaxy mergers between late-type spirals considerably abundant in interstellar medium by performing numerical simulations designed to solve both the dynamical and chemical evolution in a self-consistent manner. We particularly consider that the star formation history of galaxy mergers is a crucial determinant for the nature of stellar populations of merger remnants, and therefore investigate how the difference in star formation history between galaxy mergers affects the chemical evolution of galaxy mergers.

AbstractWe describe the serendipitous discovery of two new lithium-rich M5 members of the Scorpius-Centaurus OB Association (Sco-Cen). Both stars exhibit large 12 and 22 μm excesses and strong, variable Hα emission which we attribute to accretion from circumstellar discs. Such stars are thought to be incredibly rare at the ~16 Myr median age of much of Sco-Cen. The serendipitous discovery of two accreting stars hosting large quantities of circumstellar material may be indicative of a sizeable age spread in Sco-Cen, or further evidence that disc dispersal and planet formation time-scales are longer around lower-mass stars.

AbstractWe map the spectrum of $$1\rightarrow 2$$1→2 parton splittings inside a medium characterized by a transport coefficient $${\hat{q}}$$q^ onto the kinematical Lund plane, taking into account the finite formation time of the process. We discuss the distinct regimes arising in this map for in-medium splittings, pointing out the close correspondence to a semi-classical description in the limit of hard, collinear radiation with short formation times. Although we disregard any modifications of the original parton kinematics in course of the propagation through the medium, subtle modifications to the radiation pattern compared to the vacuum baseline can be traced back to the physics of color decoherence and accumulated interactions in the medium. We provide theoretical support to vacuum-like emissions inside the medium by delimiting the regions of phase space where it is dominant, identifying also the relevant time-scales involved. The observed modifications are shown to be quite general for any dipole created in the medium.
