Abstract

Visible and UV observations of a sample of LMC members with V greater than 14 mag are presented. The sample contains an O9V star and B0-B3 giants. Their flux distributions in the IUE range are found to be the same as those of Galactic giants. The effective temperatures and radii of the LMC members are determined by comparison with models.
