NB1 : values used for absorption corrections :

Rv = 3.07 + 0.28 (B-V)0 + 0.04 E(B-V)
η = E(V-I)/E(B-V) = 1.250 [1 + 0.06 (B-V)0 + 0.014 E(B-V)]
Av = Rv E(B-V)
Ai = (Rv - η) E(B-V)

The IR values are derived from Fitpatrick (1999, PASP 111, 63) :

Aj = 0.276 Av
Ah = 0.170 Av
Ak = 0.112 Av

NB2 : For the absolute magnitude of δ Ceph , the Lutz-Kelker correction of Benedict is used: -0.015
