Magellanic Clouds:Structure

Scientific paper

This article, by Dr. Edward H. Geyer of Observatorium Hoher List, Fed. Rep. of Germany, touches upon a somewhat controversial subject in contemporary astronomy. The structure of the Large Magellanic Cloud is the focus of much research with southern telescopes. Originally classified "irregular", it now appears that it may be possible to break down the LMC into two components, a central ellipsoidal and a somewhat offset spiral structure. Dr. Geyer discusses the problems of identifying the various stellar components (the populations) in the LMC, by means of Schmidt plates from La Silla.
