SkyTools 3 question for galaxy brightness
When I do a DB query to get a list of galaxies I don't remember what I would put in for Magnitude. About all I remember related to that is that there is an equation for SBr (mag/arc sec^2) and I used to use that to come up with a decent magnitude to enter. If my question makes any sense, could someone refresh my memory for me to go about calculating a realistic mag/SBr to enter in my query?
