Abstract
EURD (Espectrografo Ultravioleta extremo para la Radiacion Difusa) is one o f the scientific instruments on board MINISAT 01. EURD is a spectrograph wi th very high sensitivity and spectral resolution (similar to 5 Angstrom), d esigned to obtain extreme ultraviolet (similar to 350-1100 Angstrom) spectr a of diffuse radiation. We outline the processing of EURD data, and how we obtain information from these data on the scientific goals of the mission: hot interstellar medium, neutrino decay line, nightglow emission, and early -type stars.
