De-reddened mean flux densities of Sgr A* in the infrared.

λ f Extinctiona
(μm) (mJy) (mag)

8.6 84b 2.0 ± 0.3
4.8 3.8 ± 1.3 1.0 ± 0.3
3.8 5.0 ± 0.6 1.23 ± 0.08
2.1c 2.2 ± 0.2 2.59 ± 0.03
2.18d 1.1 2.5

Notes. 

(a)

Assumed extinction at this wavelength;

(b)

de-reddened 3σ upper limit, including the uncertainty of the extinction correction. The measured 3σ upper limit, i.e., not corrected for extinction, is 10 mJy;

(c)

calculated from the data given in Meyer et al. (2009);

(d)

median flux density from Dodds-Eden et al. (2011). They give a multiplicative standard deviation of 2.1 for the median flux.
