3.2 Diameters

µ = 27.68 + 5[log D(n) - log D(0)], where D(0) is the ``face-on'' diameter (in minutes of arc) in the standard system of the Reference Catalogue and log D(n) = gamma0 - 0.10n (D in kpc, n leq 5), with

gamma0 = 1.10 1.15 1.20 1.25 1.30 1.35 1.30 1.20
T = E L S0,1 S2,3 S4,5 S6,7 S8,9 I9.
