The difference between the apparent magnitude and the absolute magnitude is known as B. Distance modulus
It is widely used quantity to measure distances.
Apparent magnitude is not the real value as it is known as how we see far objects from earth, such as stars and its apparent brightness. But absolute magnitude is real value as how the star would actually resembles with actual brightness with a atandard parameter of distance considered.
