Up: BVR photometry of comparison


4 Conclusions

We have determined photometric sequences in the fields of 9 quasars that are monitored at the Torino Astronomical Observatory. Standard magnitudes have been given for 36 stars in the BVR bands and for 10 stars in the VR ones. A comparison with other available calibrations has been performed, revealing a general agreement among data.
