HST and FUSE DADS retrievals will be down from Tuesday, September 2 through Wednesday Sept 3 for a DADS/OPUS installation. See list of alternative data sources. During part of this time, the database will also be down and so searches will be down during that time (HLA and GALEX are unaffected by this downtime).

Acknowledgments

This work was inspired by the preliminary FUSE Magellanic Clouds sight line atlas presented by Danforth et al. (2002, ApJS, 139, 81).

The optical MCELS data were kindly made available by MCELS PI Dr. R. Chris Smith (NOAO), with specific technical contributions from Dr. Sean Points (NOAO/CTIO, for LMC) and Dr. P. Frank Winkler (Middlebury College, for SMC).

The Spitzer data for the LMC are from the SAGE survey (Dr. Margaret Meixner PI, STScI; see Meixner et al. 2006, AJ, 132, 2268), as made available publicly through the Spitzer archive and processed into the form used here by Dr. Robert D. Gruendl (Univ. of Illinois).

The Spitzer data for the SMC are from the Spitzer Survey of the Small Magellanic Cloud (S3MC) and were published by Bolatto et al. (2007, ApJ, 655, 212). Their mosaic images at 3.6, 8.0, and 24 microns were kindly made available by A. Bolatto and S. Stanimirovic.

A number of scientists, students, and support staff have provided creative and technical assistance to this project, including: Dr. Cristina M. Oliveira (JHU), Dr. Charles W. Danforth (Univ. of Colorado), Dr. Alex W. Fullerton (STScI), Dr. Ravi Sankrit (Univ. of California Berkeley), Stephanie LaMassa (JHU), Serah Gutman (JHU), Judy Cheng (previously JHU), Mary L. Romelfanger (JHU), James Caplinger (CSC/JHU), and Karen Levay (CSC/STScI/MAST).

This work has been made possible by a FUSE Cycle 5 NASA grant NNG05GE03G to Dr. William P. Blair of The Johns Hopkins University.
