cds-question@unistra.frmagellanic-cloudsultraviolet-astronomyWe present the first observations of diffuse radiation in the far-ultraviolet (FUV; 1000-1150{AA}) from the Large Magellanic Cloud based on observations made with the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer. The fraction of the total radiation in the field emitted as diffuse radiation is typically 5%-20% with a high of 45% near N70 where there are few exciting stars, indicating that much of the emission is not due to nearby stars. Much less light is scattered in the FUV than at longer wavelengths, with the stellar radiation going into heating the interstellar dust.2010ApJ...718L.141Phttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/ApJ/718/L141CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toVI/129 : The FUSE Observation Log (FUSE, 1999-2007)J/PASP/121/634 : FUSE observations in Magellanic Clouds (Blair+, 2009)J/ApJ/622/294 : STIS UV spectra of LMC PNe (Stanghellini+, 2005)J/MNRAS/357/645 : LMC far-UV HST observations (Almoznino+, 2005)J/AJ/117/206 : LMC far-ultraviolet imaging (Brosch+, 1999)J/AJ/116/180 : Magellanic clouds ultraviolet observations (Parker+ 1998)https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJ/718/L141https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJ/718/L141http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJ/718/L141https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJ/718/L141https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJ/718/L141http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJ/718/L141GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/ApJ/718/L141/table1 (Details of FUSE observations)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJ/718/L141/table1?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJ/718/L141/table1?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJ/718/L141/table1?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true72.42-69.360.0055555555555555565/8280 6/33053 33075 33076 33078 33079 33089 33091 33092 33094 33097 33098 33099 33101 33102 33106 33112 33115 33116 33124 33126 33127https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/ApJ/718/L141?format=asciiUVdefaultJ/ApJ/718/L141/table1Details of FUSE observationsSimbadNameSimbad column added by the CDSmeta.idcharrecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
