Distance index

Japanese: 距離指数 - きょりしすう
Distance index
The difference between the apparent magnitude and absolute magnitude of a celestial body is used to express the distance to the celestial body. If the apparent magnitude is m, the absolute magnitude is M, and the distance to the celestial body in parsecs is r, then the relationship is m-M = -5.0 + 5.0log 1 (/0)r.
