Scientific paper

Analytical expressions for interstellar extinction are convenient for many numerical applications. Following the launch of the International Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE), good quality UV data have become available for individual objects in the Magellanic Clouds for the first time. The main objective of the present investigation is related to a parameterization of the UV LMC extinction law, as an aid in the analysis of these data. Convenient formulas for the optical and IR extinction in the LMC and the Galaxy are also provided.
