Star clusters at |b|>20{deg} show comparable reddening values between the two methods, in agreement with the fact that most of them are located beyond the disk dust layer. For very low galactic latitude lines of sight, differences occur in the sense that DIRBE/IRAS reddening values can be substantially larger, suggesting effects due to the depth distribution of the dust. The differences appear to arise from dust in the background of the clusters consistent with a dust layer where important extinction occurs up to distances from the Plane of =~300pc. For 3% of the sample a significant background dust contribution might be explained by higher dust clouds. We find evidence that the Milky Way dust lane and higher dust clouds are similar to those of several edge-on spiral galaxies recently studied in detail by means of CCD imaging.2000A&A...359..347Dhttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/A+A/359/347CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicehttps://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/359/347https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/359/347http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/359/347https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/359/347https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/359/347http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/359/347GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/A+A/359/347/table2 (Properties of Galactic globular clusters)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/359/347/table2?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/359/347/table2?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/359/347/table2?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true6.0121-72.08010.005555555555555556Cone search capability for table J/A+A/359/347/table3 (Properties of Galactic old open clusters)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/359/347/table3?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/359/347/table3?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/359/347/table3?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true285.3830.64790.0055555555555555566/1133 1285 1481 1512 1782-1783 2436 3015 3046 3076 3091 3168 3277 3633 3674 3796 3950 4078 4298 4698 6149 6389 6817 9436 9666 10008 10321 10336 12405 12425 12531 12943 13198 13309 13996 14175 14251-14252 14310 14336 14489 14575 14740 14751-14752 15121 15379 15594 15709 15711 15759 15827 16647 17121 19091 20001 20562 20814 20833 20903 21017 21531 21538 21549 21557 21560 21586 21719 22065 22130 22216 22224 22239 22433 22478 22499 22871 22885 23612 23620 23638 23745 23761 23861 24057 24121 24330 24344 24489 24491 24544 24843 25873 27237 27975 27984 28067 28577 28705 28717 28741 28751 28768-28769 28778 28805 28808 28815 28817 28833 28835 28838 28855 28867-28868 28876-28877 28882 28889 28895 28899 28903 28959 28962 28970 28973-28974 29077 29184 29187 29195 29202 29216 29222 29231 29233 29248 29267 29289 29294 29318 29377 29626 29632 29636-29637 29816 29870 30311 30321 30323 30378 30439 30769 30998 31019 31043 31095 31115 31128 31398 31417 31723 32083 33099 33321 33330 33635 34242 34317 34811 36971 37211 37294 37320 37867 37929 37971 38242 38465 39131 39274 39290 39356 39642 39710 39766 39775 39954 39956 40101 40696 41011 41257 41304 41466 41507 41522 41613 41622 41678 41768 41789 41834 41847 41852 42076 42135 42152 42177 42216 42274 42278 42314 42320 42361 42466 42528 42700 42761 42789 42841 42862 42955 42958 42990 43125 43193 43227 43894 44086 44220 44427 47125 47620 47777 47825 47866 47868 47903 47916 47935 47971 48035 48434 48444 48698 48952https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/A+A/359/347?format=asciiOpticaldefaultJ/A+A/359/347/table2Properties of Galactic globular clustersrecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
