Photometry, Historical Review

Scientific paper

This is one of the review papers celebrating the centenary of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, see also 004.051. Photometry is a fundamental and important technique in observational astronomy. It has shown remarkable growth over the last 100 years, since the 1889 PASP paper reproduced. The future will be just as remarkable. In spite of the introduction of new detectors, new methods, and new telescopes, many aspects remain the same, such as color systems, extinction corrections, transformations, other necessary reduction techniques, the idea of information resolution, and issues of sensitivity and accuracy.
