Abstract
We calibrated the absolute magnitudes M V M J M K s and M g of red clump stars in terms of colours M V and M g are strongly dependent on colour while the dependence of M J and M K s on colour is rather weak The calibration of the absolute magnitudes M V and M K s is tested on 101 RC stars in the field SA 141 The Galactic model parameters estimated with this sample are in good agreement with earlier studiesThis research has made use of the NASA/IPAC Infrared Science Archive and Extragalactic Database NED which are operated by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory California Institute of Technology under contract with the National Aeronautics and Space AdministrationThis publication makes use of data products from the Two Micron All Sky Survey which is a joint project of the University of Massachusetts and the Infrared Processing and Analysis Centre/California Institute of Technology funded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration and the National Science Foundation
