TL;DR: In this paper, the discovery of two spiral galaxies located behind the southern Milky Way, within the least-explored region of the Great Attractor, was reported, and the galaxies were the most prominent of a set identified using mid-infrared images of the low-latitude (jbj < 1 � ) Spitzer Legacy program Galactic Legacy Infrared Mid-Plane Survey Extraordinaire.

TL;DR: The first detection of HCO+ absorption in the Magellanic system using the ATCA was reported in this paper, where the authors observed nine extragalactic radio continuum sources and detected HCO + absorption toward one source.

TL;DR: Sauvage et al. as mentioned in this paper presented a detailed survey of the state-of-the-art space telescope systems, including the Space Telescope Science Institute, NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, Oak Ridge Associated Universities (ORAU), Oak Ridge, TN 37831, USA, and the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan (NOMA).

TL;DR: In this article, the power-law index (gamma) for both underlying density and velocity fields in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) was calculated using neutral hydrogen HI observations.

TL;DR: The HPOL spectropolarimeter at Ritter Observatory as discussed by the authors achieved first light with HPOL on 2012 March 11 and performed frequent observations of unpolarized standard stars to calibrate the instrumental polarization.
