  1. SDSS griz photometry (first experiences at Baja Observatory) T. Hegedüs – A. Szing – J. Vinkó* Baja Astronomical Observatory, * Szeged University KOLOS 2013

  2. First Standardized photometric system: Johnson’s UBV (1950…) Harold Lester Johnson (April 17, 1921 – April 2, 1980) UBV system: based on photomultipliers (basically blue-sensitive) Sloan Digital Sky Survey (2000-…) Apache Point Observatory (New Mexico, US) D=2,5 m RC telescope – at 2788 m altitude 65% clear sky 3 deg. large field of view 30 x 4 Mpixels CCD (cooled to -80C LN)

  3. 58x58 mm Made by Omega Optical Supported by Masaryk Univ. Brno (Cz) & Szeged University (Hu)
