KRATOS: A large suite of N -body simulations to interpret the stellar kinematics of LMC-like discs

[Context] The Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (LMC and SMC, respectively) are the brightest satellites of the Milky Way (MW), and for the last thousand million years they have been interacting with one another. As observations only provide a static picture of the entire process, numerical simulati...

Descripción
Sumario:[Context] The Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (LMC and SMC, respectively) are the brightest satellites of the Milky Way (MW), and for the last thousand million years they have been interacting with one another. As observations only provide a static picture of the entire process, numerical simulations are used to interpret the present-day observational properties of these kinds of systems, and most of them have been focused on attempting to recreate the neutral gas distribution and characteristics through hydrodynamical simulations.
