We present an analysis of interstellar O VI 1031.93 toward several O and WR stars in the Tr 16 cluster, based on high-resolution spectra obtained with the FUSE satellite. The objective of this study is to investigate the distribution of O VI absorption within the cluster. The target stars include CPD-59D2628, CPD-59D2627, CPD-59D2632, HDE 303308, CPD -59 2600, CPD -59 2603, HD093205, HD093204, HD93162, HD093250 and HD 93308 (Eta Car). Two interstellar molecular hydrogen transitions, Lyman 6-0 P(3) 1031.19 and Lyman 6-0 R(4) 1032.35, are located very close to the interstellar O VI feature. These lines have been modelled by analyzing other P(3) and R(4) transitions in the FUSE spectrum. The column densities and distribution of the O VI ion in the Carina Nebulae is determined by using Gaussian profile fitting procedures. These results are compared with FUSE observations of other OB stars in the general vicinity of Carina, but outside the active region. This work has been supported in part by NASA grants NAG5-11137 to Catholic University of America and NASA contract NAS5-32985 to Johns Hopkins University.
