Abstract:

The Asiago Database on Photometric Systems (ADPS) is a compilation of basic information and reference data on 167 optical, ultraviolet and infrared photometric systems. Thirty-four additional systems are briefly described. In compiling this census we have relied on published information only. In Paper II the photometric systems will be inter-compared, calibrated and parameterised by means of synthetic photometry using uniform criteria and the same set of input spectra and extinction laws.

Key words: photometry -- astronomical data bases --surveys

What is OpenURL?

The OpenURL standard is a protocol for transmission of metadata describing the resource that you wish to access. An OpenURL link contains article metadata and directs it to the OpenURL server of your choice. The OpenURL server can provide access to the resource and also offer complementary services (specific search engine, export of references...). The OpenURL link can be generated by different means.

If your librarian has set up your subscription with an OpenURL resolver, OpenURL links appear automatically on the abstract pages.
You can define your own OpenURL resolver with your EDPS Account. In this case your choice will be given priority over that of your library.
You can use an add-on for your browser (Firefox or I.E.) to display OpenURL links on a page (see http://www.openly.com/openurlref/). You should disable this module if you wish to use the OpenURL server that you or your library have defined.
