Notes. Column-(1): Distance modulus from Li et al. (2021) and references therein. Column-(2): Galactic extinction, that are calculated by averaging the extinction map within 1 deg around each object, based on the map by Schlegel et al. (1998) via https://irsa.ipac.caltech.edu/applications/DUST/ Column-(3): Metallicity range, which are taken from Kirby et al. (2011), except for Carina (from Koch et al. 2006). Columns-(4–6): Morphological parameters: Position Angle (PA), ellipticity (e), half-light radius, respectively. We adopted e = 1 − b/a, where a and b are the major and minor radius, respectively. PA and e have been calculated from our PM-selected sample and rhalf values have been taken from Muñoz et al. (2018).
