Scientific paper

We present a Spitzer IRS data cube of 30 Doradus and maps of fine-structure lines and PAH features derived from it. Analysis of the ionic lines of Ar, Ne, and S reveal physical conditions in the ionized gas at parsec-scale resolution. The prominent ridge in the center of the nebula shows elevated excitation, and several small-scale "hot spots" are revealed and analyzed. Hardening of the ionizing radiation field is detected in several interesting locations.
