make_passband

The make_passband tool reads response data, and writes them to a passband file. It accepts the following command-line arguments:

<input_file_name>

Name of input file (see below).

<F_0>

Normalizing flux \(F_{0}\) (\(\erg\,\cm^{-2}\,\second^{-1}\,\angstrom^{-1}\)).

<passband_file_name>

Name of output passband file.

The input file is a text file tabulating wavelength \(\lambda\) (\(\angstrom\)) and passband response function \(S'(\lambda)\) (see the Photometric Colors section).
