Why are there two sets of ENBW correction factors?

For calculating the equivalent noise bandwidth of a non-brickwall filter, I can find two different sets of numbers, both of which claim they are similar things:


Order   EqNBW
1   1.5708
2   1.1107
3   1.0472
4   1.0262
5   1.0166
6   1.0115
7   1.0084
8   1.0065
9   1.0051
10  1.0041

 


1 1.57
2 1.22
3 1.16
4 1.13
5 1.12

Which is correct?

Or are they both correct; just used in different calculations?
