We present an extinction analysis of nine reddened/comparison star pairs in the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (LMC and SMC) based on Far-Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) FUV observations. To date, just two LMC sight lines have probed dust grain composition and size distributions in the Magellanic Clouds using spectral data for wavelengths as short as 950 ц…. ... An intermediate product of this extinction analysis is the measurement of new H2 abundances in the Magellanic Clouds. ...

Next: Airmass Calculation Up: Flux Calibration Previous: Flux Calibration . To calibrate the chromatic response, observations of a standard star (preferably more than one) are needed, for which the absolute fluxes are known. The spectral response curve of the instrument can then be determined with the command RESPONSE/LONG , and absolute fluxes for the objects of interest are obtained with CALIBRATE/FLUX . ...

... Abstract: We present an extensive study of the radiative transfer in dusty galaxies based on Monte Carlo simulations. ... We have explored the dependence of A_l on a conspicuous set of quantities (Hubble type, inclination, dust optical thickness, dust distribution and extinction properties) for a large wavelength interval, ranging from 1250A to the K band, thus finally providing a comprehensive atlas of dust extinction in galaxies, which is electronically available. ...
