Abstract
Spectroscopic and photometric parallaxes are based on the assumption that to each point in the relevant region of (g, Teff, a)-space there corresponds a unique mass. The implications of a breakdown in this assumption are discussed briefly and an alternative approach to problems that traditionally have required spectroscopic or photometric parallaxes is presented. This alternative approach involves the use of the (log g, log Teff)-diagram as an HR-diagram.
