Recently, Kallivayalil et al. derived new values of the proper motion for the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (LMC and SMC, respectively). The spatial velocities of both Clouds are unexpectedly higher than their previous values resulting from agreement between the available theoretical models of the Magellanic System and the observations of neutral hydrogen (H I) associated with the LMC and the SMC. We investigated this hypothesis for the pure tidal models, as they were the first ones devised to explain the evolution of the Magellanic System, and the tidal stripping is intrinsically involved in every model assuming the gravitational interaction.
Nové hodnoty vlastních pohybů Velkého a Malého Magellanova oblaku odvozené Kallivazalil et al. odhalují neočekávaně rychlý prostorový pohyb Magellanova systému. To může znamenat, že se oblaka přibližují k Mléčné dráze poprvé, což znemožňuje interpretaci tvaru a rychlostí HI v Magellanově proudu, mostu a ve vedoucím rameni pomocí modelů použivajících slapové síly.
