A cross-calibration between Tycho-2 photometry and HST spectrophotometry [PDF]
I show that Tycho-2 photometry and HST spectrophotometry are accurate and stable enough to obtain a precise cross-calibration by analyzing a well-calibrated sample of 256 stars observed with both Hipparcos and HST. Based on this analysis, I obtain the following photometric zero points in the Vega magnitude system for Tycho-2: 0.020+-0.001 (B_T-V_T), 0 ...

Precision spectrophotometry for PNLF distances: the case of NGC 300 [PDF]
The Multi-Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) has enabled a renaissance of the planetary nebula luminosity function (PNLF) as a standard candle. In the case of NGC 300, we learned that the precise spectrophotometry of MUSE was crucial to obtain an accurate PNLF distance.

Spectrophotometry of shell galaxies [PDF]
Low dispersion spectra of two shell galaxies, NGC 3923 and NGC 3051, have been obtained covering the 5300Å to 10000Å spectral range. These long-slit spectra go through the nucleus of each galaxy and also through 12 shells in NGC 3923 and through 3 shells in NGC 3051.

Shedding light on spectrophotometry: The SpecUP educational spectrophotometer
Students often regard laboratory instruments as ‘black boxes’ which generate results, without understanding their principles of operation. This lack of understanding is a concern because the correct interpretation of analytical results and the ...

Spectrophotometry of thin films of light absorbing particles [PDF]
Thin films of dispersions of light absorbing solid particles or emulsions containing a light absorbing solute all have a non-uniform distribution of light absorbing species throughout the sample volume.

Nitrogen Concentration Estimation in Tomato Leaves by VIS-NIR Non-Destructive Spectroscopy
Nitrogen concentration in plants is normally determined by expensive and time consuming chemical analyses. As an alternative, chlorophyll meter readings and N-NO3 concentration determination in petiole sap were proposed, but these assays are not always ...

A recalibration of optical photometry: Tycho-2, Strömgren, and Johnson systems [PDF]
I use HST spectrophotometry to analyze the calibration of 3 optical photometry systems: Tycho-2 B_T V_T, Str\"omgren u v b y, and Johnson U B V. For Tycho-2, I revisit the analysis of Ma\'iz Apell\'aniz (2005) to include the new recalibration of grating/aperture corrections, vignetting, and charge transfer inefficiency effects produced by the STIS ...

Carded Tow Real-Time Color Assessment: A Spectral Camera-Based System
One of the most important parameters to be controlled during the production of textile yarns obtained by mixing pre-colored fibers, is the color correspondence between the manufactured yarn and a given reference, usually provided by a designer or a ...
