68 AUTOSTAR CCD PHOTOMETRY
Terms and Definitions
Note: (V – I) is used in the following equations, but is actually
not necessary, as final values for (V – I) can be determined from
the (V – R) and (R – I) values.
Observational Data
I Star Counts = i counts
R Star Counts = r counts
V Star Counts = v counts
B Star Counts = b counts
Calculated Data
(Corrected for 1.0-second integration time)
I Star Count Corrected = i counts
R Star Count Corrected = r counts
V Star Count Corrected = v counts
B Star Count Corrected = b counts
Observational Data
The following data has been modified slightly, but is based on
actual data taken at the Hopkins Phoenix Observatory (HPO) with
a modified DSI Pro CCD camera, imaging the M67 star cluster (an
object with well-determined comparison values). Star counts have
been normalized for a 1-second integration time. X is the Air Mass
for the observation. Table E-1 lists the raw count data.
