Columns BAND and NBAND

The column named BAND gives the standard name of the band. This column contains 8-byte character variables, and is normally displayed with A8 format.

Standard values for the BAND column are:

for the UBV(RI) system: 'U', 'B', 'V', 'R', 'I'

for the 4-color system: 'u', 'v', 'b', 'y'

for the H-beta system: 'betaW', 'betaN' (for Wide and Narrow, respectively)

for red-leak filters: the name of the main band followed by 'RL'; e.g., 'URL', 'BRL', etc.

for ``neutral'' filter combinations: the name of the band, followed by 'ND' if only one value of attenuation is used, or by 'ND1', 'ND2', etc., if more values are used

for any opaque position: 'DARK' for a single detector; or 'DARK1', 'DARK2', etc. for multiple detectors

Notice that each distinct type of measurement counts as a separate band entry, including measurements made with different neutral-density filters, red-leak, and dark measurements. For example, a one-channel photometer with a filter wheel that measures U, B, V, and the red leak in U, plus a slide containing open, opaque, and two neutral-density filters would have [4 filters (2 ND + 1 clear positions = 3 different intensity measurements) ] = 12 different rows, plus a 13th row for the dark measurement. The combinations of red-leak filters that involve ND filters should be named with the RL before the ND --- e.g., URLND1. For more details, see the examples in subsection gif, ``Sample instrument files''.

The column named NBAND contains an integer used for cross-referencing. An I5 format is convenient. Normally, this is the reference column for the whole table file.
