Hello Saul (cc Chris),
thanks for your comments. I have one small concern about the sentence
(p.10):
"However, an extra term has been added to the usual formula,
in order to take into account the appropriate transformation between
IR and optical photometric systems. The $K$-correction between filter
$x$ and $y$ is given by $K'_{xy} = K_{xy} - (x-y),$ where $(x-y)$ is
the color of Vega and $K_{xy}$ as defined in Kim et al (1996)."
I added this upon request by Chris, but as I understand from you, this was
already in the original paper by Alex (I am sorry for not having checked
this carefully). I would like to make sure you both agree on this
point before I delete the sentence from the paper.
On a different issue, I wrote to Brian and asked about how to phrase the
private communication. I am changing the paper accordingly ( I will
forward the email to you):
"We found differences with the results published in \citet{tonry}, due to
the use of an incorrect filter in those calculations, however, the
$K$-corrections calculated as part of the MLCS Distance fits to this
object were done with the correct filter (Brian Schmidt, private
communication)."
Cheers,
Serena
