4 Mar 1999 | Subject: | astro-ph | Affiliation: | Beijing Astrophysics Center, Beijing Astronomical Observatory | Abstract: | The purpose of this paper is to present a method to self-calibrate the spectral energy distribution (SED) of objects in a survey based on the fitting of an SED library to the observed multi-color photometry. We adopt for illustrative purposes the Vilnius (Strizyz and Sviderskiene 1972) and Gunn & Stryker (1983) SED libraries. The self-calibration technique can improve the quality of observations which are not taken under perfectly photometric conditions. The more passbands used for the photometry, the better the results. This technique has been applied to the BATC 15-passband CCD survey. | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/9903079 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
