We present the first results from the Small Magellanic Cloud portion of a new Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) HI absorption survey of both of the Magellanic Clouds, comprising over 800 hours of observations. Our new HI absorption…

Cold neutral hydrogen (HI) is a crucial precursor for molecular gas formation and can be studied via HI absorption. This study investigates HI absorption in low column density regions of the Small and Large Magellanic Clouds (SMC and LMC)…

We report the first evidence of molecular gas in two atomic hydrogen (HI) clouds associated with gas outflowing from the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). We used the Atacama Pathfinder Experiment (APEX) to detect and spatially resolve…

We present the GASKAP-HI pilot absorption survey of neutral hydrogen (HI) in the Magellanic system. This survey provides 3219 sightlines across the Large (LMC) and Small Magellanic Clouds (SMC) and the Magellanic Bridge (MB) towards 1.4-GHz…
