Description

The effective temperatures and radii of Small Magellanic Cloud supergiants are found by comparison with models. The methods used parallel those used previously by the present authors for the Large Cloud and by previous authors for the Galaxy. No significant difference is found among these galaxies in this respect. A new analysis of the SMC extinction law is presented. (author)
