Next: Reduction procedure Up: Extinction and transformation Previous: Strategy . Standard stars can be included in the extinction solution, if one is careful. The problem is that there are usually appreciable ``conformity errors'' due to mismatch between the instrumental and the standard passbands [ 16 ]. ... Thus, it is wrong to assume that the transformation between the instrumental system and the standard system is exact, even if there were no measurement error in either system [ 1 ]. ...

. To append the standard output from a command to a file use two >> (greater than) symbols followed by the name of the file. If the file does not exist it is created. For example: cat part1 > chapt2 cat part2 >> chapt2 . This creates a file called chapt2 with the same contents as part1 . It then reads the contents of part2 and appends them to the file chapt2 . The file chapt2 now contains the data from part1 followed by the data from part2 .

... The first step to improve the FORS calibration is therefore to obtain data to allow a computation of the illumination correction across the field. ... Another limitation on the calibration accuracy has been the brightness of the Landolt standards which have forced the use of extremely short exposures introducing small but non-negligible shutter-time errors and also resulting in a very small number of useful standards per frame. ...
