a Zero-points are also taken from Maíz-Apellániz (2006). b Combines UBV from Maíz-Apellániz (2006) with ![]() c We adopt the traditional definition of magnitudes, using Pogson's rather than Lupton et al.'s (1999) formula; see Girardi et al. (2004) for the motivations of this choice. d A Vegamag zero-point reproduces the photometry quite accurately for most IR systems (see Reach et al. 2005). AB magnitudes, however, may be convenient because then the magnitudes can be easily converted to the flux in milli-Jansky by means of a single formula, i.e. ![]() e We use zero-points determined by Maíz Apellániz (2007) using Bohlin's (2007) Vega spectrum. As a consequence, the 2MASS zero-point offsets measured by Cohen et al. (2003) do not apply. f For the H ![]() ![]() ![]() |
