We describe a set of glass UPXYZVS filters of the Vilnius photometric system of the Andrushivka Astronomical Observatory in Zhytomyr Region (Ukraine) [7]. They are installed at the Zeiss-600 Cassegrain reflector together with the 15-bit 1024×1024 CCD-camera S1C-017. The response curves of instrumental photometric systems are presented and a compari...

... the "telescope+receiver" system, filters play a crucial role in the formation of curves of reaction of the photometric system. Table 1 gives some information on components (a sort of glass and glass thickness in mm in brackets) and optical features (the transmission maximum wavelength λ max ( ˚ A), transmission bandwidth ( ˚ A), and the transmission maximum value (in percent)) for the filters made for AAO. Atmospheric transparency (the equivalent thickness of the layers O 2 and H 2 O are 3 and 10 mm, respectively) and selectivity of mirror reflection [1] were taken into account by calculating final curves of reaction of instrumental system bands. ...
