MAGOS: Hot Cores in the LMC Reveal Subsolar Chemistry in Star Formation
Overview: MAGOS maps hot cores in a metal-poor neighbor The Magellanic Outflow And Chemistry Survey (MAGOS) targets the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) to explore how massive protostellar environments develop under subsolar metallicity. By surveying a sample of hot cores around 30 massive protostellar objects, the study investigates the chemical inventory, excitation conditions, and spatiotemporal evolution…

MAGOS: Hot Cores in the LMC — Exploring Subsolar Chemistry in the Large Magellanic Cloud
Introduction: A Subsolar Laboratory for Star Formation The MAGellanic Outflow And Chemistry Survey (MAGOS) opens a window into how massive stars form and how their surrounding chemistry unfolds under subsolar metallicity. Focusing on the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), a nearby dwarf galaxy with about half the Sun’s metallicity, the survey targets hot molecular cores around…
