Starburst99
Empirical Far-UV Stellar Library

This web site presents the complete Far-UV empirical stellar library implemented in the Starburst99 code for evolutionary spectral synthesis of young stellar populations. Spectra are those of O-type and B-type stars, between 1003.1 and 1182.678A, with a dispersion of 0.127A. The spectral library is based on data from the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer. Observed stars cover two different metallicities: our Galaxy (solar) and the Magellanic Clouds (1/3 solar). The current version includes stars from O3-type to B0-type for the sub-solar metallicity, and from O3-type to B3-type at solar metallicity. Wolf-Rayet stars are also included. All spectra have been normalized and are given in FITS format via compressed .GZ files. Note that another version of this library has been added to the LavalSB code.
