摘要
We report the discovery of six young (10-50 Myr) main-sequence stars projected between 7 degrees and 13 degrees from the center of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). These stars have low to moderate velocity differences with the predictions of a LMC disk model, indicating that they were formed in situ. Our study demonstrates that recent star formation occurred in the far periphery of the LMC, where thus far only old objects were known. The spatial configuration of these newly-forthed stars appears ring-like.
