... The distribution of galactic RCB stars is controversial. Several authors have argued that they belong to a thick galactic disk, and are thus old Population I stars. ... However, their distribution and space velocities suggest they may alternatively belong to the even older galactic bulge (Population II, [ Drilling 1986 ]). ... These are the only RCB stars for which a distance is known and hence for which an absolute magnitude can be deduced. ...

V, K: As a rule, V magnitudes are from the Simbad database, if source is variable the maximum is shown. ... For what concerns K magnitudes, they also are extracted from the Simbad database unless one of the following suffixes is present: a) the magnitude is an estimate obtained for the typical V-K of the given spectral type; b) estimate derived from the signal level during the occultation event; c) photometric measurement shortly preceding or following the occultation event. ...
