Oke (1990) Spectrophotometric Standards
Oke
(AJ, 99, 1621, 1990) has provided absolute spectral energy distributions covering the wavelength range 3200 to 9200A in AB magnitudes for 25 stars. The measurements were made with the Double Beam Spectrograph of the
Hale 5m telescope. The reduced magnitudes are tabulated at 1A intervals from 3300 to 4700A and at 2A intervals from 4700 to 9200A. Comparison of the fluxes with those determined elsewhere showed that Oke's absolute magnitudes are systematically brighter by 0.04 mag. The magnitudes and fluxes plotted have been corrected for this effect. Colina & Bohlin
(AJ, 108, 1931, 1994) tabulate the differences between the original Oke fluxes, in terms of synthesized B and V magnitudes, and Landolt photometry for each star individually. The AB magnitudes were converted to flux (ergs/cm/cm/s/A) using the formula ABMAG = -2.5 alog10(Fnu) - 48.59 (Hamuy et al.,
PASP, 104, 533, 1992), where Fnu is in ergs/cm/cm/s/Hz.
