Scientific paper

We propose to obtain spectrophotometry for a sample of Landolt standards in the wavelength range 3200-10000Å. We will use this spectrophotometry along with our atlas of supernova spectrophotometry to explore the systematic effects of using filter+detector transmission functions that differ from the standard UBV(RI)_KC prescriptions. These data will allow us to calculate ``S-corrections'' from the transformed natural system to the standard system in a manner similar to a K-correction. Data taken on the CTIO 0.9m and YALO telescopes of the bright supernova SN1998bu show that systematic errors of 0.1m can occur in the transformed photometry even when local standards (in the CCD frame) are used.
