Abstract

High-resolution (λ/δλ ≅ 6 × 104) spectra of R136 (the central object of 30 Dor) and of 2 LMC supergiants obtained at ESO with the 1.4-m telescope have been analysed in order to study the high-velocity absorption components at υ LSR ≅ +60 km s−1 and ≅ +130 km s−1 first seen in satellite ultraviolet spectra in the general direction of the LMC. Our data have been integrated with previous literature results of SN1987a and of other 4 LMC supergiants obtained from spectra of similar spectral resolution.
