Left: map of the power-law index α used to fit the interstellar attenuation law in the NIR. The map is approximated using the linear slope of the log–log equation of the power law through n = 1000 Monte Carlo iterations. Right: the uncertainties of α, Δα. Each uncertainty pixel is the standard error (﹩\sigma /\sqrt{n}﹩) of the mean of the Monte Carlo distributions.
