Abstract:
New UBV photometry for 878 luminous member stars of the Large
Magellanic Cloud (LMC) and 13 stars of uncertain membership is
presented. Including former observations now UBV data are available
for altogether 2470 luminous LMC stars and 2106 foreground stars plus
65 stars of uncertain membership. The observations have been used
already for several investigations dealing e.g. with interstellar
reddening lines and intrinsic colours, the dust distribution and the
calibration of charge-coupled device exposures.
