| Description | The IUE archives provide an unprecedented sample of uniform, high-quality ultraviolet stellar spectra. In particular, they contain high-resolution SWP data for nearly 200 different O stars. We have undertaken a survey of the 1200-1900 A region in about 120 of them having homogeneous optical spectral classifications to investigate systematically the behavior of the ultraviolet features, incuding the prominent stellar wind profiles and the degree to which they correlate with the optical types. The standard extracted spectrograms have been rebinned to a constant wavelength resolution of 0.25A and uniformly normalized (not dereddened) at the GSFC RDAF. They are then plotted at 10A/cm, with reseau, photometric quality and echelle order junction flags available. This atlas contains such plots for about 100 stars, arranged in spectral-type, luminosity and peculiar object sequences. The results show a high degree of correlation between the ultraviolet features, both photospheric and stellar-wind, and the optical classifications for the majority of the O-type stars. |
