FOREGROUND GALACTIC EXTINCTION for NGC 1978 (Back to INDEX)Galactic Extinction from the Schlafly & Finkbeiner 2011, Appendix; 2011ApJ...737..103S (SF11) recalibration
For completeness, we include the original SFD98 values: WARNING: This position is 213.195 arc minutes from the center of the LMC. The value of E(B-V) is not derived from the IRAS/COBE extinction maps. See SFD98.
Galactic Extinction based on H I Column Densities and Galaxy Counts (Burstein & Heiles; 1982AJ.....87.1165B) assuming Rv = 3.1: AB = 0.220 mag See Notes on Galactic Extinction for important caveats. |
