Notes. The second column shows the star counts of Matsuura et al. (2009) for C-stars in the external region of the LMC rescaled to the area encompassed by our analysis. The last two columns are the star counts and total mass-loss rates obtained from this study.
Current usage metrics show cumulative count of Article Views (full-text article views including HTML views, PDF and ePub downloads, according to the available data) and Abstracts Views on Vision4Press platform.
Data correspond to usage on the plateform after 2015. The current usage metrics is available 48-96 hours after online publication and is updated daily on week days.
Initial download of the metrics may take a while.
