Narrow absorption components (NACs) in the N V (top panels) and C IV (bottom panels) doublets of two O4 dwarfs in the SMC. The velocity scale refers to the blue component of the doublet, and has been shifted to remove the systemic velocity of the SMC. The separation of the components of the doublet is indicated by brackets at 0 velocity, and matches the separation of the NACs near the blue edge of the P Cygni absorption trough. Strong interstellar features associated with the Milky Way (near velocity of −170 km s−1 ) and SMC (near 0 velocity) and are visible in the C IV profile.
