Abstract

The SAGE-Spectroscopy Spitzer legacy program (SAGE-Spec; PI: F. Kemper, PID: 40159; Kemper et al. 2010) is the IRS spectroscopic follow-up to the successful SAGE-LMC legacy program (Meixner et al. 2006; PI: M. Meixner, PID: 20203) that mapped the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) with all bands of the IRAC and MIPS instruments on board the Spitzer Space Telescope. This technical document gives details of the data-reduction procedure and the various data products that are publicly available through IRSA: http://irsa.ipac.caltech.edu/data/SPITZER/SAGE/
