Catalog Service: OB stars extinction based in IR photometry
Description
The paper presents an extensive survey of interstellar extinction curves derived from the near IR photometric measurements of early type stars belonging to our Galaxy. This survey is more extensive and deeper than any other one, based on spectral data. The IR magnitudes of about 500 O and B type stars with E(B-V)>=0.05 were selected from literature. The IR color excesses are determined with the aid of "artificial standards". The results indicate that the extinction law changes from place to place. The mean galactic extinction curve in the near IR is very similar in different directions and changes very little from the value R=3.10+/-0.05 obtained in this paper.

This is service that does not comply with any IVOA standard but instead provides access to special capabilities specific to this resource.
This is a standard IVOA service that takes as input an ADQL or PQL query and returns tabular data.
This is a standard IVOA service that takes as input a position in the sky and a radius and returns catalog records with positions within that radius.
