Abstract

We present and categorize Spitzer infrared spectrometer spectra of 294 objects in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) to create the largest and most complete catalog of massive young stellar object (YSO) spectra in the LMC. Target sources were identified from infrared photometry and multiwavelength images indicative of young, massive stars highly enshrouded in their natal gas and dust clouds. Several objects have been spectroscopically identified as non-YSOs and have features similar to more-evolved stars such as red supergiants, asymptotic giant branch (AGB), and post-AGB stars. Our sample primarily consists of 277 objects we identify as having spectral features indicative of embedded YSOs. The remaining sources are comprised of seven C-rich evolved sources, eight sources dominated by broad silicate emission, and one source with multiple broad emission features.
