IZJHKL'M' Standard Star Magnitudes
IZJHKL'M' Standard Star Magnitudes
A
text file summarising IZJHKL'M' standard star magnitudes
is available. The IZ is on the UFTI natural system, the
JHKL'M' is for the Mauna Kea consortium filter set which is
installed in both UFTI and
UIST .
The JHK values listed
in this file are from a project to measure
standards through the new filter set (i.e. they are direct
measurements, not transformations from the previous set). The
publication,
JHK Observations of Faint Standard Stars in the Mauna Kea Near-Infrared
Photometric System ,
details the standard star magnitudes and comparisons
with other photometric systems.
These data include results on some secondary standards taken from the
list by Persson et al. 1998 AJ 116, 2475.
The L'M' work is described in
L' and M' standard stars for the Mauna Kea
Observatories Near-Infrared (MKO-NIR) system
by Leggett et al. , 2003 Mon.Not.R.astr.Soc. 345, 144.
See other links available from the calibrations homepage
for further information on the standards e.g. how the current system relates
to previous UKIRT photometric systems, colours, choice of standard
stars, etc.
