Notes. Each table cell shows the combination b ± e, that is, the bias and the average error associated with a single extinction measurement computed using Eq. (37) for different true extinction values (columns) and different methods (rows). These values are followed by the expected noise ē, evaluated using Eq. (38). Ideally, b should be as close to zero as possible (negligible bias), e should be as small as possible (small noise), and ē should be as close as possible to e (accurate noise estimate). All quantities are expressed in magnitudes.
