Notes.VHK magnitudes are given, as well as limb-darkened (LD) and uniform-disk (UD) angular diameters. The references are B02: Bordé et al. (2002), B06: Bonneau et al. (2006), A09: Absil et al. (2009). The interferometric signature of fast-rotation and debris disk of HD 216956 is significantly below the observational uncertainties so that this star was used as a suitable calibrator.
