Scientific paper

Ground based and International Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE) observations of hot stars in the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds were carried out to investigate the mass loss process in these objects and to search for differences with galactic hot stars. Results show that in a large proportion of the stars observed the mass loss process is taking place. A mechanism for acceleration of the wind in OB stars is proposed, involving multiple scattering of hard UB photons in the range 100A to 500A.
