Faint spectrophotometric standard stars
Abstract
Absolute spectral energy distributions for 25 stars have been measured with the Double Spectrograph on the 5 m Hale telescope. They have been selected to be spectrophotometric standards for use with the Huble Space Telescope and with ground-based telescopes carrying out HST related work. More than half of these stars have absolute fluxes measured in the ultraviolet with the International Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE). Spectra are shown and smoothed absolute fluxes at continuumm points are listed. Comparisons of these fluxes with those determined elsewhere show that the ones in this paper are systematically brighter by 0.04 mag.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
