Apparent distance modulus as a function of for the stars belonging to the Sgr stream and Sgr dwarf. The data are shown as a histogram normalized by column. The stars belonging to the RC depict a well-defined sequence. In a secondary axis, the distance of the particles in the LM10 model is superposed in blue. In the absence of extinction and with our assumed calibration of the RC, the two would be directly comparable. The data show general good agreement with the model with discrepancies for example in the apocenter of the leading arm.
