Metallicity Distribution in the LMC and the SMC Based on the Tip-RGB Colors
The color index ( J − K ) _0 of tip-red-giant branch (TRGB) is used to study the metallicity distribution in the Large and Small Magellanic Cloud. With the most complete and pure sample of red member stars so far, the areas are divided into 154 and 70 bins for the LMC and SMC, respectively, with sim...
