We present far-infrared spectra, ЮЛ = 52-93 ЮМm, obtained with the Spitzer Space Telescope in the spectral energy distribution mode of its Multiband Imaging Photometer for Spitzer instrument, of a selection of luminous compact far-infrared sources in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). ... We compare these results with those obtained in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). ...
