Differential density maps for different stellar populations in the LMC. Left column: density map in the BL evolutionary phase. Middle panels from top to bottom: density maps of the young phase, i.e. stars with age <400 Myr, Young 3 phase, i.e. main- sequence stars with age 1−1.5 Gyr, and oldphase, i.e. stars with age >1 Gyr. Right column: normalised difference between the left and middle panel maps, shown with a logarithmic stretch.
